Still has a nice silver finish to it as well. Just try not to break the bank on it!

It's a fake. Give me a little while and i'll prove it, just gotta pop out for a short while.

Hi Faust,
The above badge is a very good fake that originated here in the U.K. around 6-7 years ago.
The main giveaway is the grass and rock foreground below the front of the tank. It is not like any genuine design by any maker, it's pure fantasy. Take a look at the genuine FLL 43 immeadiately below and then the fake right under it, followed by a close up of the fantasy grass design seen on the one you show.
The reverse is also wrong, the hinge and the recess it sits in is incorrect, and the MM FLL 43 is also bad. The catch plate is close to some originals, but that is also placed over an oval recess and is noticable, wheras in the one above it isn't, it's cast in. Here are a couple more photo's of an identical fake badge as the one you show, with exactly the same details.
A dangerous fake that has fooled many collectors, but the devil is in the detail, and that's what you need to look at.
Regards, Ned.

Hi Ez,by Eric Zentner
It sure looks that way. and at $495 that's an expensive kick in the clock weights to whoever buys it.
Sorry for the small photo's, but here is another rear set up variant of the fake badge that is also a proven lemon, and it's identical to the one on germanmilitaria.com.
Regards, Ned.

The "squares" within the tank also differ from the original FLL.
Re: Panzerkampfabzeichen by FFL43
Here are a couple photos of a good one for reference.
