Verwundetenabzeichen in Black WW2 Authentication

[Nate]

Seller is selling for 30 bucks. Bought from him before and all turned out good. Honest man but is trying to get WW2 badges out due to the fakery.

Keep your $30.00! This is a known as the "turtle" fake by Wound Badge collectors due to the compressed helmet shape.

This design pops up in several different guises:

Just a subtle change in the bow to keep you on your toes!

Wow, I wasn't familiar with this one... "turtle fake". I can definitely see why it earned the name. Great info to have, thanks much! Always learning something new about this hobby.

WOW! Thanks very much. I am going to feel so bad to break to news to this guy. I am going back to his shop tomorrow to possibly get a medal and take some more pictures of some items he has.
