Verwundetenabzeichen 1944 Fake or Original
Hello all!
I found such a badge at an auction.
Can you tell me if it is original or fake
I would be grateful
If it is a fake, please write what is the difference between this badge and the original
Sorry for my bad english but i don't speak english very well
It lacks the detail of the originals, what was it described as? Juli 20 1944 in Schwarz or Silber? From what I see it isn't an original Juncker marked Silber abzeichen.
Don't even think about bidding on this. It is a very poor copy of an extremely rare badge. Totally wrong hardware and detailing. You will find photos of real badges in post number 12 and 17 of the following thread:

The badge you picked up looks like junk. Here is information about this wound badge that should convince you this is not an original. The difference should be obvious from the attached photo. Neil
The 20 July 1944 Wound Badge was only issued to those injured during the failed attempt on Adolf Hitler's life at the Wolf's Lair headquarters in Rastenburg, East Prussia. Twenty-four men were present when the bomb detonated; one officer was killed and three succumbed to their wounds a short time later. Thereafter, Hitler ordered a special wound badge be awarded commemorating the event, as he believed "fate had intervened" for him.
Thanks for opinion!
