Buyers should note that the use of the word "hallmarked" in any listing does not mean that a badge is necessarily genuine, department-issued as many reproduction badges have makers names. All "Gode" badges for example are worthless reproductions.
It should also be noted that several makers names have been faked on badges (notably Sun Badge Co and Irvine Jachens) and Entenmann-Rovin rosettes have been stuck onto fake badges to make them appear genuine. Buyers should ask questions of the seller and do their own research BEFORE bidding.
Any seller misrepresenting any reproduction badge as issued will have their membership suspended, with listings cancelled and no fees refunded.
