Hello and congratulations on creating this wonderful forum. I just purchased an infantry assault badge. It has been a topic between fellow collectors if it real or not since there's many fakes of this type around. Please let me know what you think.
Thank you.Thomas.

Welcome to AHF ;

I think it's a good example of a hollow stamped IAB, made by B.H. Mayer

Thank you for the welcome and the reply. My mind is more at ease now after this purchase. I bought it from a reputable dealer, but I have been told that fakes are almost as good as the originals. Hence, I thought it would be good to get more opinions on it. Muchas gracias.
Thomas
