Eric,

From the scan I can't tell if that's solder or oxidation, but the badge looks good to me.

I assume these are fakes too? Again, sorry for the dark scans... My scanner isn't cooperating lately.

Auke,

I don't like much the second one (no traces of wear, fake patina). The first one doesn't look bad to me, but you'd better wait for Alexei's opinion on these.

Auke,

The picture of the reverse is too dark, I can't see anything. Also I would like to see a large picture of the center medallion.

I'll see what I can do - my scanner is having some problems lately and my camera is useless.

Pulemetsik is good, but Torpedist is fake. That's my opinion.

Lauri,

Most likely, but let's wait for some better scans.

Good or Bad

Guys,

thoughts on these two badges. These scans are the best I can get from seller.
