Fake Panzer anwehr abteilung 654 Tag ??

[cbh507]

Hello, Guys
I found Panzer abwehr abteilung 654 Tag. But..
I think it's fake.The font doesn't look familiar.
What do you think of this token?

The bloom on the rear from the letters being stamped is not a good sign, although the font looks similar to originals I see no good signs of wear.

I've posted this slightly clearer grab from the site for others to opine on. But not one for me.

I have no comparison but I think it has a chance to be a good one.
It's often difficult with stainless steel tags. Pictures alone are not enough.

It's not good for me. The use of stainless steel tags in Panzer units is historical, but there have long been many many fakes. Conscientiously, the condition on the back is not good. In addition, the famous unit is imprinted on it, making it suspicious and sellers will entice consumers to say they got it from the real set(aus Nachlass).

there are many cases in which the stainless steel tag itself is genuine and only the imprint is a fake.
So there will be differences of opinion.


Personally, I wouldn't collect it.

Hi all friends.
Thank you for your opinion. Yes, I agree with you guys.
I also think stainless steel tag is not good.
I guess I shouldn't collect it.

It's not always east to give good ID unless they can be compared with known good originals.
