Thanks guys, better to check than find out later that it was good.

Hi Tom, I'm pretty darn sure it's not good, but you might want to wait for Adrian or more discerning eyes to have a look before you toss it. Several points on it that don't look right, but I've been wrong before.

......but I've been wrong before.
So have I!
I have to agree with the above though, it doesn't look good and it's not one I'm comfortable with. Hopefully fischer or János can add their thoughts too.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

Re: Help please - Infanterie Sturmabzeichen - Fake?
Thanks Adrian.
Jay, I agree as to this being bad, but like you I don't know enough to chuck this without checking first.
I value all you guys' input, enough said, it's gone.

God, i hope Tom has seen fit to wait for more opinions before binning this one, this bloody hobby gets me down sometimes, and its mainly down to all the rotten , filthy, scumbags who see fit to con , cheat and otherwise make a fast buck from people who take their pastime seriously, this tends to fill us with a certain doubt about authenticity on the items we collect and that can lead to some horrible mistakes, i wonder if its worth taking up collecting snail shells but i daresay some little scrote will find a way to bugger that up as well

Thank you Fischer!! I was on the verge of actually throwing this away when my wife said that there was another email from wrf about this badge. Just as well, hey?
The lack of detail under the bayonet is not as pronounced on your one, but now that I have something to compare to, i can see the similarities.
Thank you again for saving this one Fischer, glad to have someone with your knowledge on this great forum.
BTW, do you have any more by this maker? Would love to see pics to compare between variants.
Tom
