That's an original small MM badge for sure, but the broken catch and signs of zinc pest starting would make me think twice if I were you. Just bid what you feel comfortable with because of this.

i have some doubts about it...ill wait for another one and better. thanks for helping me and please could you look at this one? here is link: infanterie sturmabueichen ,,vienna design,,
Sorry, I can't really help with this one as i'm not overly familiar with all the makers and types. It reminds me of a semi hollow Assmann I once owned, although it's not MM'd. It could be any maker or even a fake as these Vienna design semi hollow badges have been copied in many variations over the years. Best to wait for fischer or stewy to take a looksy.

It's a nice Souval. Can you get a pic with the pin open? That would help, if not me but Fischer may be able to provide more info. Stewy
Hi Guys
The first badge posted is an original wartime Souval but as mentioned, the broken catch is very detrimental and for the most part, has very limited collector value.
The wartime Souval examples are relatively common and if it were me, I would wait for another.
Best Regards, fischer
