PS: if you need any more images or if you need a measurement on the Silver wound badge just ask!

Bodhi, please post them separately next time.
Uploading photos and posting multiple items.
I don't really like the silver, there is no rear rivet and I don't like the finish.
Also, I am not familiar with any maker that used this type of hinge.
I suggest you wait for other opinions though.
The cloth wound badge was worn stitched to the tunic, as far as I know.

rbminis, sorry about posting them together I’ll make sure not to do it again.
I’m pretty confident on the Silver Wound Badges Originality but I have been wrong before.

Hello Bodhi
The silver badge is of the so-called Deschler/Wiedmann design and will be larger than your average Verwundetenabzeichen. These badges are found with several hardware configurations, the one shown has an accepted variation. I do agree with Ralph however about the overly shiny finish. Perhaps the badge looks different in real life. Here are two links. The first shows some of the different set ups found on these badges. The second shows a ground dug badge with the same hardware as yours. I ended up buying this badge.

Thank you for the help Brett, the finish is only a little less shiny in person and has caught a lot of glare from my poor household lighting but overall the badge is similar to the image, I have seen Gold wound badges polished maybe that’s what has happened to this one.?
Cheers,
Bodhi

Hey Bodhi
A close look at your badge shows the shiny finish peeling around the swastika and helmet visor, revealing more subdued silver underneath. This could point to a possible refinish. Better photos with better lighting could help.

I will absolutely give you some better images but it will sadly have to be tomorrow as it’s too late now for good lighting. If it is a refinished badge I assume it would of been done post war? I also see the shiny coat peeling around the back at the top of the hinge.
Thanks,
Bodhi
