25 Year Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen
Opinions on this piece please. Thanks to all...
I don't know if it's original or not, but it's 25 combat engagements, not years. Good luck with it.
Unfortunately it's fake. Even with these limited pictures it can be seen that the numbers on the shield are the incorrect font. On the reverse the hinge is wrong, as is the pin shape, it's too thin at the top and rivets also don't match originals. It would fool many, but a closer examination reveals it's faults.
Regards, Ned.
