Hello,
looks fine and original to me.
i would wait for other opinions however before we can say 100% its authentic.
It's either a near mint original or a damn fine top quality repro?.............
An extremely fine original IMO. But don't be suprised if some question the minty finish! I for one, would buy that baby in a heartbeat, no worries!

Hi Darren, good to see the white cotton gloves being used!
Can you take some straight on shots in natural light please? The images are a little dark and some have a pink tinge. It would be good to see the badge in all it's glory.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
that is one very nice badge.
