Coburger Abzeichen real or fake

[thecyclist64]

Hi everybody, my friend has just returned from a Spanish flea market with two purchases which I will post seperately.

This is the Coburger Abzeichen (awarded only 436 times), which I have never seen an original of, and was wondering if anyone would be able to confirm authenticity, or otherwise. It does feel as though it is made of real bronze. Many thanks for looking.

IMHO it is a reproduction. Here is a link to one in my collection, a known original type 2:

Coburg Badge and a Coburg badge stick pin

type 1 here:

Ailsby Collection: Coburg Badge

apology for the link, but I do not have Mr. Ailsby permission to copy his images.

Note the # of windows in the buildings as well as the #2 in 1922 & 1932 on your example you posted compared with originals seen at the links.

There is more to critique on the OP example but won't. No sense helping reproducers.

It's a fake no doubts.
