Variation on the Wallonie shields

[Stangell]

First type WALLONIE shield is a reproduction, as are the large Wallonie enamel pins.
Small ones might be ok ,better closeup pics needed,
Pieter.

What do you say about the Wallonie shield at right, is it an original?

Ah, you answered my question the very second I posted it :-)

Hello,
On this photo, a Walloon DRK nurse wears a little shield at the buttonhole of her dress, attesting a such shield was well in use...
Best regards,

Small Walloon pin

...i never stated the small pin never existed....

To be clear to all,

The small pin you posted exists but yours is a fake...

The large pin NEVER existed and is so also fake ( made by same person as the fake small one)

No i will not post a picture of an original one for well known reasons

Yes i can show you an original one but not on the forum

no because I have these enamelled insignia for several years and I love them for various reasons
The only insignia purchased are the worn Wallonie bevo and Flemish Legion (see other post) lost in a batch of 38 insignia.
