One (important) question : in how many turns do the close?

My first guess : black one is ok : 2 yellow ones most probably post war

The oatmeal coloured ones are DDR issue, and are not marked with the Materialprüfungsamt logo and manufacturing code/material properties.

I missed out on one of these 30 years ago, it had some insignia inside but I didn't know what it was.
So I bought the badges and not the case, and I still think about it. Collectors be crazy.
