Re: L/53 Verwundetenabzeichen (black)
It looks o.k. Leon, but the pic's aren't the best. The hinge is slightly wider than i've seen on other Hymmen badges but it's probably a variation as the rest looks alright.
Regards, Ned.

Difficult to tell with these photos Leon, but I do not see any red flags.

Re: L/53 Verwundetenabzeichen (black)
Hi Leon,
I've had another look around this after, and the wider hinge is typical of the steel badges they made. The new pic's make me think yours is probably steel and therefore magnetic. I was thinking it was brass and the hinge is smaller on them than the I & II type steel pattern they produced. Whatever, it doesn't matter the badge is good.
Regards, Ned.
