Hello All,
here is a not so common variation of a Schauerte & Hohfeld black wound badge.
As far as I am aware there are only three variations by this manufacturer that are made of steel. The two more common variants are one with the normal folded hinge another with the elliptical base plate on the hinge and this one with the oblong hinge and rounded corners.
Looking at the weak strike of the makers mark on the skirt of the helmet it is more that likely one that was made towards the end.
Any opinions welcomed.
All the best
Doug
