As some of you know, my dad and I collect WWII stuff. Now, he came home today with a pin that I have been having a hell of a time figuring out the authenticity of. So far, it matches all the descriptions for a real one, and passes all the material tests. However, the clasps on the back are giving me a headache. They just seem wrong for the type of pin. Was it perhaps broken off and then someone tried to fix it later on with a different clasp? If any of you are good with this kind of stuff, let me know what you think. Here is the Luftwaffe Beobachterabzeichen pin. (Or at least, that I what I am thinking it is. I don't specialize in stuff from the Luftwaffe though.)
Please note that the camera sucks, and I have a super yellow-ish light in my room that makes that weird yellow reflection on the wing.
