coastal artillary war badge

[tihi42]

Can anyone take a closer look at this badge, is it worth buying?

[Laurence Strong]

I am not an expert but from comparing it to other pictures it appears to be a good one. Lets see what others say.....

This one looks kind of iffy .... the reverse hardware & the soft details on the front.

[tihi42]

Define "iffy"? When compared to another badge by the same marker there are some small differences inside the gun shield and on the breach block. Are those the "iffy" parts?

tihi42 , after looking more closely at your badge I do believe it is a good FLL zinc badge .FLL used 2 different hinge plates which I did not know.Anyway nice badge you have there.

The details appear soft, however IMHO that could be from wear....it conforms to this one quite well.

Hello there,

Be careful, there are very good Staegmeir fakes out there....

Good thing yours isn't an exact match.
