I like them both Richard and 200 is a good price ( easily 1/2 the going rate )
The detail and catch on the minesweeper is nice as well as the gilt wash residue and the GAB with the integral catch and ejector marks also shows it's an original late war make. There are real experts here who will fill in my gaps for you but I would grab them if offered to me.
Cheers, Dan

Thanks Dan, I thought the front of the sub chasers badge looked a bit too evenly worn and in too nice a condition to be real.
On the general assault I saw a similar one on here be called fake so wasn't sure.
Are the non maker marked badges less collebtable?

The GAB is "1. 1. 4. Assman massive GAB with mold number 2" according to Frank Heukemes book, which is confirmed by the barely visible #2 half way down the badge

Thanks Larry, so looking like the GAB is a real one then and possibly the minesweepers one?

Hello
I am not much on KM war badges, however it appears to me to be an original Deumer L/11 horizontal pinned badge.
Not sure if the pictures will show up for you, this is from GCA (German Combat Awards) forum:

Hi Richard, both look fine to me.
If you can post separate threads for each badge in future that would be best.
Also we have a pinned thread for the German language names for the badges. I will edit these for you
I know there is a lot to learn, but you will soon find you feet!
Cheers, Ade.

I can concur with Larry Richard that your Minesweeper is an unmarked Deumer in very nice condition
Well done...I hope you bought them
All the best
