G559.)LUFTWAFFE PILOT'S BADGE: absolutely, positively and certifiably genuine period. A beautiful original and it's so nice to actually examine a real one. Superior quality, nickel-silver wreath and eagle motif with lots of detail to feathering and fletching, eagle's talons. Ask for more up-close and detailed photos should you be interested in buying this stunner. Reverse has high quality barrel hinge, 15mm wide, and with pointed pin (slightly bent). Two perfectly domed and flawless rivets on the back and properly marked with the straight line logo 'BRUDER SCHEIDER AG, WIEN'. EXC++++
