here is a link from gdc.com selling a membership pin with the flat red enamel coming out of LATVIA
I to note the reverse on this one which looks good but these are just to controversial and make good debate

Pat there are known fakes with this enamel but at the same time these have showed up in so called vet lots. Latvia is a red flag for sure and even with the looks of this one it is caveat emptor know the source

I posted this to create discussion
I tend to disagree when I read prejudicial statements. Latvia is a baltic republic,in the EC since 2004 and I don't see why people from there should have a red flag. I deal with people from Latvia on daily basis for work...
Fakers and crooks are EVERYWHERE.
I actually tend to like this badge, nice back and imo is original. Maybe I wasted my Christmas money but I already got it .
i like the badge, people seem too happy to condem something thats not the norm, id be happy with it in my collection
