Good tombak CCC in bronze by A.G.M.u.K type 1.1.1. IMO.

re: Nahkampfspange by AGMuK: original or repro?
I agree with you guys.It looks to be a original clasp from A.G.M. u.K. ground dug.

re: Nahkampfspange by AGMuK: original or repro?
Hello guys,
it is indeed a good one but not made from tombak. Nearly every CCC were made from zinc, only some gold grades made from tombak material.

I will defer to your knowledge János - it's in remarkably good condition is made from zinc and is ground dug!

re: Nahkampfspange by AGMuK: original or repro?
Janos is right, thinking about it, the other day a presentation close combat clasp in gold was discussed where it was shown that only they were tombak, the regular ones being zinc or alumiminium. It was me wot wrote it...!

If it wasn't for the tip being cleanly snapped off, it would be in not bad shape at all! It interesting to imagine just How the injury must have occurred to it! And, yes-it looks genuine to my eyes as well.
