A Couple Of Juncker 1.1.1 Panzerkampfabzeichen's.
Hi Guys,
Just posting these couple of Juncker type 1.1.1 Panzerkampfabzeichen's I picked up last Autumn time. It's just an excuse for me to try out an Epson scanner I picked up off Ebay recently, and this is the first time I've got it rigged up and tested....,seems O.K. and not bad for less than 20 quid
These PAB's are the grand daddy of them all, the very first of the Panzer badges to have started being awarded in May/June 1940 after Fall Gelb, the blitzkrieg in the West. and although they appear identical, the one on the right has a slightly different variant catch. They were made from nickel silver and received no finish unlike my slightly later 1.1.2b that had a silver wash finish added for reasons unknown.
Nickel Silver Panzerkampfabzeichen by C.E. Juncker of Berlin.
Although by no means uncommon, the history, quality and design of these makes them highly desirable to collectors, and hence the value put on these is rather higher than most other early non zinc badges.
Regards, Ned.

Hi Ned, two great looking awards, I hadn't thought of scanning my badges to get images. I may well try that next time I get one, it's bound to come out better than my camera skills! Leon.
