Polish Pre-39 Cap Eagle

[DaBear]

Of course! I was thinking something in German. Interesting!

[DaBear]

There brass examples are nice, but what is the difference between the designs? Is a date or producer thing?

[DaBear]

Thanks 3MK. That's why I love this site!

Hey again,
Yup its a maker type thing, I also hate to say but I suspect that the badge on the left is a cast copy.

But the one on the right is a nice example

[DaBear]

It figures. The nice one on the right I recently got for $15! I am sure I paid more than that for the left one.

These both have the anchor and letters "SF" (+ BM for Bialy Metal). What is the name of this manufacturer?

Warsaw based firm of Skarnik and Fiszbein.

Tony

Hello Rich,

Yes, that is a model 1919 eagle, so it’s in the right forum. We’d need a better close up look at the front and back to add any further comments about authenticity, etc. Thanks for your post.

Regards,
Tony
