RD325.)IMPERIAL PRUSSIAN NAVAL SEA PILOT'S BADGE: totally superlative old counterfeit and one made to screw you. Constructed of a quality gold alloy, handsomely toned with patina. Ask for more up-close and detailed photos should you be interested in buying this gem stunner. Reverse has high quality hinge and flat, blunt pin that's crisply die-struck with maker 'H.SCHAPER'. Identical to several of the badges (particularly when viewed from the reverse) illustrated in Niemann's work 'Orders and Decorations of Germany 1870-1945, pages 44 and 47. EXC++++
