Do the WW2 fakes consist of ONE set of fakes or are there multiple versions?
For instance, I have a detailed photo of a fake scout badge. I can compare it to the item for sale and look for deviations. BUT if more than one good fake version exists, this becomes more problematic. So how many fake versions are there?
OR for instance take post 139
In that post it got the thumbs down as a fake, but it is clearly different from this piece which is being sold as a reproduction.
Is the verdict in 139 suspect or are there two different fakes?
Both of these are being sold as repros, there seem to be subtle differences. For instance the dots in the shield border are larger on one than the other (or maybe it is just the lighting?), but there are no big differences between them.
