Infantry Assault badge......

Hi

A original Infanterie Sturmabzeichen made by RS (Rudolf Souval) with a broken catch.

Thanks

Cameron

Thank you Cameron

Cameron is correct. I also think this is a wartime compatible badge. The finish has been absorbed by the zinc base metal.

It,s a fine badge,shame about the damage but at the right price a great peice of genuine history!!

As stated, this is a R. Souval example with the small RS type of marking. The finish has evaporated with time which is common to this maker.
At one time it had a round wire catch and circular catch plate soldered to the reverse. As we can see someone tried to repair it.

This Souval variant is considered very common.

Best Regards, fischer
