Need help! Two Allgemeine Sturmabzeichen: Authentic Pieces? Bronze Finish on Assman?

Hi, all. I saw these two General Assault badges this past weekend. I'm nearly certain the first is an authentic piece by Assman as it has the correct maker and mold markings. I can't tell what the finish used to be on this badge...probably bronze? The 2nd badge I believe might be a fake/repro but I'm not sure. The eagle's head and the casting in general look a little crude. I'm also not sure about how the pin is attached on the reverse. The 2nd badge is being offered cheaply at $35 USD which makes me skeptical. The first, Assman marked badge is selling for $75 USD. What do you guys think?

Thanks for all the help and opinions!

Need help! Two SA Daggers: Authentic Pieces? A Good Deal?

Hi, guys. I have wanted to purchase a basic SA dagger (on a budget) to be the first in my TR collection. I recently saw these two pieces and was wondering what people thought. Upon my novice assessment I would say both appear to be original pieces, however the first with obvious condition issues. The 1st dagger is being offered for $350 USD and is RZM marked for J.A. Henckels, which I believe makes it a later (lower quality?) dagger than the 2nd which is not RZM marked. The 2nd dagger is by Edward Wusthof and being offered for $500 USD. The pictures of the 2nd dagger are a little odd since the seller took them with and without a camera flash making them look almost like different daggers. Is one of these makers more desirable? Both authentic and fairly priced?

Thanks for the help and opinions!
Best,
Adam

Cross of Valour - LWP Communist Era

The Soviet controlled communist government of the People’s Republic of Poland re-instituted the Cross of Valour in 1944. Just as with the original IIRP issues and then with the Polish Armed Forces in the West, many different variations of this decoration were made. There is an increasing interest in communist era decorations, and in particular the Cross of Valour, so it’s high time to devote a thread to this decoration.

To kick start the thread we have our first question moved from the PSZnZ forum:
