DAP Lapel Badge

[Kev Smith]

Good morning all
I am after opinions on this DAP Lapel badge please.
I am not sure if the red is paint or enamel?
It is marked M1/42 and RZM on the reverse.
Reading other threads on her there are many fakes about of these badges.
Many thanks

Wow, this is a killer late-war painted badge. This is an earlier period badge that was painted, it has stippling and doesn’t have the final pattern lettering you’d expect to see. I hope you can acquire it.

I already have it. It came in a job lot of badges I bought a few years ago. I don't really do German, my main interest is British & Comm0nwealth badges. Its been sitting in a drawer with a few other German badges that were in the lot.
So it is genuine then?

Yes, it’s certainly a genuine TR era badge.
