Need help with hollow Infanterie Sturmabzeichen im Silber

[jelmer04]

I know I post a lot questions about Infanterie Sturmabzeichen, but I do want to learn and buy one this month.
I saw this hollow backed ISA for sale, and I thought that it would be a great one.
However the head seams very weird I guess?
My only guess right now is that it could be a possible FLL?
These are the only 2 pictures I have right now, more pics are underway.
Thanks in advance

In my opinion, that’s not an original ISA. Head design and overall proportion look odd. That’s a no for me, but other more knowledgeable members will confirm this. Good luck.

It doesn't appear to be a Hymann original. I have a hollow back like this one I placed on a tunic of A light infantry Panzer Jager Leutnant

I think it's repaired FCL IAB with replaced catch and pin.

I must rectify my first post and agree with ryuuk. Here’s one for comparison: https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/attac...n-fcl-s1-o.jpg

Apologies for any confusion created.

Head close ups are always of great help. The reason it looked odd to me was the effect of the shadow on the background.

Here is a extra picture of the head, I was also doubting about the head on the first pictures but this one is clearer.

I like the head. It looks to be an original FCL. There are a few posts about them in this forum.

Thanks migobeego!
