Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Silber-Semi Hollow

[militariacoll]

Hinge and cartch are different from other examples I have seen. Any ideas?

My unlearned guess would be a SchuCo of some variant

I am still learning with these awards. Agree that it looks like a ShuCo type. Potentially a 1.05. With my tired old eyes...a few questions..

1) Is it make of stamped steel?
2) Is there a round rectangular catch plate for the catch?
3) What is the weight? 20 grams?

If so this I've read is very uncommon.

Potentially attributed to Sohni, Heubach and Co. but not proven.

Could be zinc, but has the same attributes.

Yes, could be Zinc. Weight will tell for sure. Just looked like it has some rust...thus my guess it was steel.

[militariacoll]

Yes,

It is magnetic...

Hello

I agree with the others; this one is a magnetic S.H.u.Co. Design ISA.
I'm of the opinion this one is the (4) vein variation...not the (5).
