A nice original, no doubt. Stewy

Thanks for all your answers , I'am really grateful for your help.To be honest it was a relief that it is not some strange after-war repair.I also did little "research" about those 25,50 GABs and many of these had similiar "copper colour" near catch as mine( some on the other hand no) .I found these pictures on different militaria forums.

Take a look:



I hope they wont get mad at me for posting it though.

Regards,
James.

I think you check the forum.Very nice pictures and a very nice badge!A keeper for sure!

That's a nice badge James.

Don't be too concerned about different colours of oxidisation or finish or metals used when everything else checks out. This is a very minor point, it's not even an issue, as Ned points out a copper finish was applied, not only to this but to other badges too. It is designed to improve the adherence of the finish by some makers.

There is a tendency to overlook the sum of the parts and focus on non issues when everything else is screaming original!

Yours is fine, even if it had been repaired (which it hasn't). It's a nice ASA. Here's mine. Stewy
