    It's a hard call, however from the pictures, the pin configuration and the detail looks correct.

    The number 30 is the more commonly faked GWB, but in all the fake ones I have seen, either the detail is wrong, or the catch is wrong........... This one looks fine to me, some more opinions would be nice to see I think

    Below are 2 real ones, with slightly different pins

    Hi Pierre


    I have to agree with the others, I haven't seen an original Verwundetenabzeichen in Gold 30 with such a hinge before...

    I want to know what makes a wound badge specific to the "WOUND"
    Hitler...gassed.....bronz
    I dont know anymore after that

    missing extremities?......silver

    Dead....gold?

    I dont know and Im sure there is alot of form members that would love to know?

    in the US we get the Perple Heart even if we get wounded our we die..

    why have a gold badg if the person is dead and cant wear it?

    I have a Bronz badge myself, and am greatful that I have a real one, but at looking at this pics....it makes me feel angry

    I cant seem to figure out why?
