What’s funny(and unfortunate) is this badge was posted on FB and given thumbs up.

Good afternoon! For your attention additional close-up photos of stamps.

These markings are horrible, nothing like an original. Everytime that you post a clearer photo of this badge, it only shows more clearly, the casted problems. So, if you are trying to pass this off as being original, you might want to consider only posting small, blurry photos so that any potential buyer might not notice.

Just my thoughts,

Chris

Yes, G23, come on now buddy. You asked and did not get the answers you wanted.

Listen, we have all been there, getting disappointed that the things we thought were gold were crap.
Please accept that this badge is a fake and worth maybe 1€. So please, move on with your life because it is not the quality of the pics that are the problem, it is the badge that is a fake, regardless on how close you put your camera to it.

Error

The requested Item could not be found.

Since I don't "do" SS, I apologize if this is an ignorant question, but should not both RZM markings be identical? ie, M1/21? I see no evidence of a "1" on the marking on the dome of the skull.

Hello, here I managed to compress quality photos, but unfortunately the site does not allow you to upload photos in full.

[G23]

Hello! I took quality photos of the badge, where everything is clearly visible. anyone interested, write your e-mail address in a private message, and I will send them to you, since I can’t drop them here because the photos are very heavy.
Respectfully yours Ivan Grishko.

Well, it's certainly not a cap badge. You can still see the remains of the banner at the sides.

Well,certainly it could be everything .
During cast production in garage they get drunk or loose power(electricity)
This way you can still see remains of the metal.
Witch this quality made Im not analyzing what it is.

Nice to complete this Theodor Eicke tuxedo badge.
Looks like we have also his top hat badge.

You need to look at the photos before commenting, this is a tuxedo badge with the banner on the sides broken off.

The whole Commander unit of Totenkopf Division fight to the last tuxedo....

you want to say that no one will give out an expert opinion without another original? and there are no other ways to check

You have to compare the item in question to the known original in order to be able to tell if it is original or not. If anybody analysing your badge doesn't know the original, how they can make any conclusions. Based on what. No lab has a magic crystal ball to tell yes or no. They use scientific methods. They can tell you how was it made and its content, but what does it tell you? Plus they will destroy it in the process.

How many Opinions you need then you already got in this Thread? Badge is fake, 100%. No Question there. If what i and the others say is not good enough, then call Weitze, he has one of my former Tuxedos and also another 100% proofen original. He is very well able to write you a COA and will tell you the exact same. If his word is not good enough, then go to Baldes....same there, he owns a real one...and he will also tell you the exact same. And then you ran out of Options. What we tell you here you not accept so then go to one of the well known Dealers...and get there your Certificate that it is fake. I could not think of anything else you could do more, beside get the Analyse done....and there you will get told it is cast.
