You're both right regarding the finish.
To quote Frank Heukemes:
"This Karneth General Assault Badge displays a shiny, almost chrome like finish, much the same as on some of this maker's Panzer Assault Badges..."
And regarding the reverse side:
"...The finish is more matt and grainy than that found on the obverse..."
So, nothing wrong with your keen eyes chaps.
Regards, Ned.

No to out-do Frank who is a great researcher in his field- could someone show another one with unfinished outside edges?
thanks,
