Many thanks to your opinions. I'll hope the best, and I hope also I can return it if it's a bad one.

Hi Stewy,by Stewy S
It looks to me like it may have caught the edge of the press during the manufacturing process, it's been galv coated after this in my opinion which seems very possible for an original badge. TBH, I'm not as hot on these as I'd like so may well be wrong, but I'm sure Don will be along soon enough to settle it!
Cheers, Ned.
Hang fire until fischer sees it, then we'll all know for sure!
Regards, Ned.

Yes, a final opinion would help me very much. But particularly my girlfriend, because she spent quite a bit of money for this pice ;-)
Hello
For me, this one is a good Hermann Aurich, Dresden ISA and has a chrome silver or Glanzverzinkt finish as Ned described.
In regards to the bayonet indentations Stewy mentioned, I am not sure how or what caused this?
It could have occurred during the production process but we will never know for certain.
Here is one I have with the same finish coating to compare.
Best Regards, fischer
Many many thanks for the detailed posts! I'm glad about a new original piece in my small collection, and also about this galvanised piece. I have never seen such an ISA before. Just for compare, where is such a piece pricely? I know it's a present, but the buying price was quite low for an ISA IMO.
nothing wrong with that one.
So, it had arrived and looks and feels good. Many thanks to all the opinions.
