I came across a Blockade Runner badge that I do not have clear photos of, but it is unmarked and the head of the eagle makes me suspicious of it. The pin back is just a basic pin. The eagle is highlighted silver while the rest of the badge is dull. Here are some low quality photos of the badge and a photo I found that is exactly how the eye of this badge is. Thanks for any info and opinions.

A German Navy Blockade Runner's Badge, being the type made by Schwerin with the semi-sunk back. This badge has been used and worn in service and has also had a period hook repair or replacement as can be seen from the scan. The badge could do with a mild clean, to remove some of the surface tarnish. Other than this, in very good condition and a good example of a used and worn badge. Priced for conditionGBP £195.00

Hey! Thanks for responding, this piece is actually a flat back and doesn't have a sunken back, I forgot to mention that.

One more thing I forgot to add, It may also be worth noting that the area above the wing is solid and not cut out like I've seen on some examples.
