One more of the Steinhauer & Luck variants, this one a tombak badge with a straight wide pin and round wire ? shaped catch.
The first one of these I've seen come up for sale after several years of looking so I'm guessing it's one of the more difficult to find from this maker.
It is variant M2.6.2 on the Classification Table.
A worn badge with a loss of finish but a good amount left to give it some character. As you can see in the photos, it has been heavily vaulted by hand which adds to the overall look of combat worn.
