Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Silver by BH Mayer?
Hello friends,
I have this IAB.
I think this is a BH Mayer with the flat catch (not the round wire catch as posted in the data base).
But I think this is a zinc one. Did they also exist in Zinc? I only find bronzen (Buntmetallblech) ones in books...

You are learning young Padawan.It is a hollow zinc version of the Schickle design taken on by Mayer after the former company was closed down in June 1941.

Great! Thanks!
Now I can add it to the Data Base.
Greets!

I agree with Ned, this one is referred to as the BH Mayer/ O.Schickle design ISA in zinc.
The obverse design matches the details of the tombak examples.
