Andreas, I agree that this badge looks the same. I have the same book and used it to compare with the one in post 1. But there are a few differences. One the nut isn't the same at all. No big deal as it could be a replacement nut. Where there is a difference, is in the reverse. The running man isn't has detailed as the photo in the book. Also, there are three marks to the left of the serial number. In the book those marks aren't there. Are they scuff marks? I don't know. The serial number isn't quite the same. Am I being paranoid? Maybe but if I am not 100% convinced that this badge is authentic, i will pass because such a badge will be expensive. That's where I am hesitating...
