    Is this a real early Porsche crest?

    Hello,

    What do you think of this crest? Real or repro? It looks a bit different than the ones I've seen, but it has patina.

    very nice however some gold has been rubbed off, you can see residual of a cleaner/polish in the crevices and it looks a little "rosey" pinkish in color.
    never ever use metal polishes on an original badge, you end up polishing away the fine gold. nice badge regardless

    The first place I look is the "C" in Porsche - all the repros I have seen get that wrong.
    This one looks right.

    No I am not selling this one, but I might sell this other one. The colors on this one look a lot more like the ones in my 67 car that is also really beautiful. So, that is why I was asking about the authenticity of the first one. It looks too nice
