There is much about this badge that I do not like.

I would urge you to wait and see what other responses you recieve before buying !!

fake - they are selling these on ebay for a couple of bucks :( a seller called babrelics used to sell them, he is no longer a registered user.

I know he (under another name) and others are selling a load of repro pins and badges, as they all have the same text in the listings "we are not sure so we are selling this a reproduction"

hi there..

I havnt ever seen a real one either in books or anywhere it may be fantasy, i dunno.. the brits had the fake market in the late 70's and early 80's so the period seems right..

I saw one of these badges some years ago at a repuatable dealer, (now no longer around).

I don't want to comment on this badge, but it is based on an existing item.

Not only is the German spelling wrong (with questionable pin on the reverse) but the Union flag is upside-down
