Verwundetenabzeichen (107) im silber
Evening gents, I have just ordered this nice Carl Wild wound badge in silver. One of my personal favourite makers for whatever reason I do not know! There's no rear helmet pin, but I have never seen one on a Carl Wild made WB, so it must be their thing, like the birds "cranky neck" on their Infantry assault badges!!! Anyway, I hope you like it too. Leon.
Hi Leon,by FALLSCHIRMJAGER
All Carl Wild wound badges have a rear helmet rivet in my experience, a fairly prominent one.I think you'll agree when you get your example in hand.
Regards, Ned.

I agree with Ned, Leon.

Interesting Ned and Ralph, I have seen three or so that appeared to have no rivet, but maybe just like this one, they were dirty and it was hidden beneath the filth. I will have a good look at it when it turns up and post a "close up" image. I think the badge is a good one, but I will give it a good look over. Thanks, Leon.Hi Leon,

The badge is fine, the rivet/pin is there.AFAIK this particular badge with the recessed harware fittings has not been copied....Yet.

Thanks Ned, that's good to hear. Leon.The badge is fine, the rivet/pin is there.
Regards, Ned.
Here it is, and as ever Ned and Ralphs eyesight is much better than mine! The rivet is clearly there once in hand and I hope this close-up shows it better. Also here's one of it "in the cabinet" with it's Gold and Black grade friends! Thanks again fella's for your wise words. Leon.The badge is fine, the rivet/pin is there.
Regards, Ned.
