Infantrie Sturmabzeichens

[Pablo]

I'm doing a "badge buy" and found it wise to get opinions through the forum before I make a purchase. Do these look ok? Thanks.

I can't recognise the badge on the left, closer picture would be good. The right one is a nice bronze grade Rudolf Karneth in zinc.

The bronze would be a good buy. Not sure about the other. Some zinc pest going on and a repaired catch, I would save your money on that one and put it towards a badge in better condition.

Hi Pablo

I agree with the others, the bronze is attributed to firm of Rudolf Karneth and is the "pebbled leaf version"
The other looks to be an unmarked ShuCo, better pics without cutting the eagle's head off would be a help.

As Adrian states, go for the Karneth and skip the ShuCo design. It is pitted and the catch has been replaced.
Unmarked 4 vein ShuCo's such as this one are considered common.

Best Regards, fischer

Hello there,

The bronze R.K. looks to be in very good condition but the silver isn't at all with that poorly repaired catch.
