Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Bronze, Hymmen - Tombak
Hi Guys
Thought I would show off my latest addition.
This ISA resided in a good friends collection for years but has now come to stay with me for awhile.
Very difficult to find IMO. Most of the examples that claim to be bronze are in fact just worn or thoroughly cleaned silver grades.
Another one I can check off of the "Ole Wanted List".
Best Regards, fischer

A lovely new addition fischer!
Patience is a virtue so I have been told.
Congrats on finally adding this one to your substantial collection!

I love Hymmen combat badges and their, how should I put it, "quirky" appearance besides their comparative rarity, especially in this condition. I agree with Ralph, good things come to he who waits eh fischer.....???
Regards, Ned.

Sweet, mate. Stewy
is the hollow version of medals aka tombac?
please forget my question. "The hollow design badge is executed in 'buntmetall' (tombac)".
