Congratulations, a rare one to be sure. The eagle on these diplomats is certifiably hard to miss. Wink

These are some of the best faked visors, next to SS lids. However, I like what I see so far.

Eek That is a wonderful example. Very hard to find an original visor like this anymore - that's 100%.

Nice Find. Congrats! Cool

That is some seriously padded bullion insignia--you never see that on the fakes.
