    I'm with Ralph, I've been looking but can't find an original to match it to. The pin and catch don't look right to my eyes.

    I think fake. It looks like a Floch. The dates are distinctive.

    To my untrained eye it looks ok for Weidmann badge. Made in zinc (not silver) it had lost it's finish over the years. I can't decide if the pin is original or not. Hopefully Fischer will be able to...

    That is a lovely looking badge. The frosted wreath and burnished highlights are beautiful.

    I'm afraid this one is a fake. The wreath looks fairly good but the eagle is not like known Deumer badges. The cut out between the eagle's legs is wrong as is the outline of the eagle and it has...

    Recipients often removed the paint from the swastika and dates to highlight them, that is nothing to worry about.

    Certainly looks good and the reverse hardware is reminding me of Juncker.
    Osang used a similar pin, hinge and catch but their clasps always seem to be maker marked.
    Sorry I can't be more help but...

    It's a leap of faith sometimes with these field made pieces. The rings would've had a long split pin or similar running through them to secure the shield to a backing cloth, I'm not sure if it would...

    That's a nice piece, good condition but also has just a nice amount of wear to show it's been worn.
  11. Beauty! Nice patina too, looks great!

    Thank you for your comments Norm, yes, this one is quite thick, the vaulting shows this off especially on the inner wreath.
    This badge weighs 30.2 grams so for sure on the heavier side.

    That's the one Norm, from Carl at Regimental Depot.

    I can't place the hinge and pin at the moment, I'll have a look through the Kriegsmarine makers later on and see if I can find a match. Strange...

    First point to check would be the date.
    7th March 1936 wasn't an official decreed date to my knowledge?
    I thought there were only four approved dates going forward from 1936?

  15. B.H. Mayer L/18 marked Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch - U-Boots - Jagd - und Sicherungsverbände.

    A curious badge. A marked L/18 B.H. Mayer Minesweeper in zinc but with non typical reverse hardware.

    The badge is a match to known Mayer badges in terms of details and trimming outlines but the...

    It is not an original medal. There is a distinct lack of quality, it does not match known and accepted original examples. This was a prestigious award and was made to a high standard. This one is...

    1939 Spange zum Eisernen Kreuzes 2er Klasse 1914.

    You need to post in the Eisernes Kreuz forum. Hopefully a Mod can move it for you.

    This a fake 1939 Spange zum Eisernen Kreuzes 1er Klasse 1914.

    The LDO numbers only went as high as L/66 if that gives you a clue......
  19. Otto Schickle Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch - U-Boots - Jagd - und Sicherungsverbände.

    Here we have an Otto Schickle attributed Minesweeper badge in tombak, variant M2.5.2 on the Classification Table.
    You don't see many of this variant with a block hinge, they mostly seem to be found...

    I agree with Robert, the reason you can't identify it to a maker is because it's a fake. The date and the frame give it away.

    See the rivet on the back under the hinge? That's what's holding the eagle on. It's a thin stamped separate piece, look from the front and side and you can see the two pieces. The badge was made in...
