Infanterie Sturmabzeichen
I have picked up a handful of German medals and badges. I am hoping that some of the forum members who specialize in these awards will take a quick look and let me know if they are right or wrong. I have a gut feeling about them but would like to know what others think.
All the best,
D

Any opinions? Had a fairly good afternoon, made 10 or so posts of badges i was not sure of and so far only one seems to be wrong, so what ever you say won't upset me too much.

Again, this appears to me to be a Mayer design badge, but better details are apparent than the other silver one (perhaps that one's just badly worn?), I like this one better, but again, wait for the real pro's to take a look.
Regards, Ned.

Hi big ned,
Surprising afternoon, all the posts I have made this afternoon are of badges I was unsure of, and so far only one confirmed fake. It just shows how little one actually knows. There is always room to learn more.

its good.
Thanks for that.

Appears to be a bronze Mayer ISA. Have you got better pics of the hinge? Stewy
Hi Damian
Like your hollow silver example, this one also is a fake based on the BHMayer / Otto Schickle Design originals.
Here is another bronze fake to compare.
Best Regards, fischer
This seems to be a game of 2 halves, some members stating the badges are original and then others heading in the other direction. What does one make of that I wonder. Luckily I had written off all the badges posted as fakes, so whatever the outcome it was not going to hurt.
