Nice Steinhauer.

Very nice. I might own such a thing on my caps, but I have never pried the things off.

This badge is every bit as desirable, to my mind, as a Deschler or some other arcane Pforzheim chisileur.

A most interesting example, the RZM GES GESCH markings are typically seen on the early production runs of the later pattern Deschler made TK's but if it were Deschler, the abbreviation would be D.&S.M. which doesn't seem the case here.
I can't make it out though.
Can you tell us what it please Dave?

Glad to see your post, Ben, life is not the same without you.

Steinhauer und Lueck was the name of the firm.

I imagine the second L is Luedenscheid.

They are still around, too.

The website also explains how a design is rendered into a badge or medallion or thingy, which is of great merit.
