Evening all 

Now I found these in my dad's bits and peices ,and I know he's had them thirty years minimum,but still doesn't mean it's not fake but I'm tapping into the goodwill and knowledge base of the German badge collectors to advise me

The pitting on the reverse plus the pin, catches, hinge and general lack of detail is not giving me good feelings about this piece alas.

Yeah, they're a bit of a nightmare these days, some of the copies are so good they fool longtime collectors, but this ones not one of these thankfully...or not, as the case may be!

obviously it'd be better if it was real....>:(
