Verwundetenabzeichen Silver for review

[NDShooter]

Hello Everyone;

These are some quick pics of a Wound Badge in silver that I got recently from my dealer. I got 3 different badges that I'll be posting all on their own.

It has no maker mark.

Thanks everyone!

This one appears to be a good quality, early tombak/brass version
by maker '30' - Hauptmunzampt Wein - a favorite of
many collectors.........!

How does one tell it's a (30) ? Just by the construction?

[Walkwolf]

I can't see it that well, but it looks like there are machined swirls
on the reverse, as well as a missing dot beside the rear helmet
rivet. These are tell-tale signs I've learned........

Thanks Again; one day I'll have to learn all of these little things to collecting!!

At least Its an original! So many fakes going around, my dealer is really good about only getting good stuff.

I learned about the 'missing dot' here on WRF.........!
