dc9 Posted July 28, 2021 Share #1 Posted July 28, 2021 Hello All, I recently picked up this Glider Badge and would like some opinions as to it's authenticity. It looks to be die struck with shear marks evident around the edge circumference. I am always hesitant about the British made badges/wings, but, this one looked OK at first inspection. All opinions are welcome. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rathbonemuseum.com Posted July 28, 2021 Share #3 Posted July 28, 2021 I am not an expert on the specific glider wing but have more than a few Gaunt aviation wings. Classic Gaunt open C catch on flat attachment. Correct bend in pin. Good die struck details and classic age/oxidization. Good piece. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
