I don't know much about these badges but it looks remarkably like a fake based upon a Schickle going by the pattern of the acorn cups and other details on the eagle and rifle.
See the thread below:
Infanterie sturmabzichen check please
Hopefully some more knowledgeable members can confirm.

Searching for anything relating to, Anton Boos, 934 Stamm. Kp. Pz. Erz. Abt. 7, 3 Kompanie, Panzer-Regiment 2, 16th Panzer-Division (My father)
Defo fake Shickle type nearly got stung with a mint one of these, luckily i did my research & compared it with my L/18 schickle /mayer . I even informed the dealer but to no avail (he said mine was the fake lol) Regards Paul
I see in the link that i informed Oberhaig that his one was an original, At the time that was my believe & i apologise for this miss information i did not see Fischers reply at the time. Your always learning in this hobby which makes it so interesting.
Can only agree with what the others have stated...an old, but dangerous fake.
Best Regards, fischer
