Hello Joe, I bought this one about 8 yrs. ago from a guy who I got some good stuff from and some no-so-good stuff. Always wondered about it. Extremley detailed and it weighs a ton. Would value yours and others opinions. Regards, Leipzig

I can't tell on your last image but I'm guessing it's marked JMME and not IMME.

That's Correct

From what I've read on these the consensus is that they are high end reproductions.

If I did my research with due diligence it is thought that there are no JMME marked observers. Some IMME marked examples but not with this eagle as I understand. This eagle resembles an Assmann style and IMME used Juncker eagles.

You should check it out more. I'd hate to see a badge pitched without positive proof.
