Hi Ralph,
That's a very nice early hollow zinc badge from Deumer.The rear set up is always interesting on these, the large base plated small block hinge being identical to that used by Hymmen & Co. on their entire hollow zinc production PAB's and is taken as more evidence that these two companies collaborated closely together.
Here's a link to my tombak Deumer PAB in bronze, the same dies were used for both badges.

Thanks Ned!
That is a beauty!
I noticed that the catch on yours is a flat wire catch as is mine. I have received another one of these recently that has a different finish and a round wire catch. I will post it in the near future.
