RD3674.)CASED LW PILOT/OBSERVER BADGE: super-fine counterfeit....this is a forgery of the very rare and desirable aluminum-type LW pilot's badge. Surely dangerous and clever, made to screw you. All aluminum alloy with gold finished wreath, natural aluminum finish eagle. Crisply detailed and impressive as hell. Reverse has 14mm wide LW barrel hinge. long pointed pin. Two perfect, domed rivets on the back. Marked with 'GWL' logo on the back for the premiere Gebruder Schneider firm of Ludenscheid. Comes in hinged, 3x3 1/2" dark blue leatherette case with gold printed title on lid 'Flugzeugfuhrer=u. Beobachter=Abzeichen'. Has functioning spring button catch at front. Inside of case is lined with plush dark blue velvet and is slotted to hold hinge/pin assembly. Upper inside of case is lined with padded blue satin. Case is a really old copy too, the type with the correct linen embossed finish. Light wear and age. This one was recently rejected out of an old collection. EXC++++
