    Guys, I'm glad we are having this discussion, however I wasn't being misleading when I posted the badge for sale. It is NOT a reproduction although it may have been made at a later date. IMO repro's would not have the makers mark. Has anyone bought one recently [maybe from Porsche] that has the makers mark? If so let's see it. When found, this badge had a piece of tape marked "'68 912" on the back. The guy passed away over 10 years ago, and parted out SWB cars over 20 years ago when they were cheap. I really don't need to sell it, or care if it doesn't sell. I'm happy to bring to the light what the differences are. Keep the replies coming, and let's figure it out. Thank you Scott for posting the NOS one I sold you earlier this year. All that shiney gold really shows up!

    I got this one today from a painter who took it off the first Porsche he ever painted in 1985. He said it was off of a 65 or 66.

    I've heard that just wiping or soaking the badge in Tarn-X works great it you want it shinny again. Anyone tried this?
