Is it zinc or tombak? Looks like tombak which would be earlier.

Thank you doesn't appear wages or plated so I think that it is tombak.

Tombac is quite a bit heavier than zinc so fairly easy to determine when held in hand

Otherwise I see nothing wrong with it.

Looks fine to me.

Thank you Map. I have a fair number of zinc ones so will have a weigh.. Looks like a nice striking and nicely finished on the edges. Martyn

Here is some more information, It is to note that on some packets produced by Carl Pollath we see a "Spelling Error" Schrobenhausen-Schrobenhansen the unverted "u" as seen in the photos, Also shown are two examples in Tombak & Zink.. G
