    Hello all,
    This is a medal I found on an online auction and I was wondering if there is a way to tell if the high seas badge is an original or not. I really would appreciate any help, also if you could advise on what it may be worth if it is real, but as you can see it is broken on the back.
    Thanks

    What is this made out of? Tombak or Zinc?

    A great thread on these is here.

    Flotten-Kriegsabzeichen

    Get's a bit confusing.

    If Tombak, it looks like a 1.1.8, 1.19 or 1.1.10 to me. But I can't clearly see the portholes well enough.
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    It is an original tombak Schwerin.
    We can see the remains of the block hinge.
    Schwerin zincers featured a barrel hinge and a circular catch plate.

    Regards,Martin.
