There are only a few makers that included a "Daisy" in the foreground of their Panzerkampfabzeichen.
An unknown maker, simply referred to as a "Daisy", Shauerte & Höfeld, and Wilhelm Deumer.
You can compare with a "Daisy" here.
Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber, Daisy.
This one looks like an early buntmetal Deumer to me.
If it were zinc, it would have a plate for the hinge, and the catch.

IMO, the pin is not original to this PAB.
It is not the correct configuration, and it does not have the tool mark that I would expect to see.
The correct type of catch, and the fact that is a directly soldered on block hinge, are what make me think this is a tombak example.
Two of my Deumer examples have a similar catch, but have a circular base plate for soldering, and two of my Deumer examples have a round wire catch with a circular base plate for soldering.
Only one of my examples has a directly soldered on block hinge, and three have a rectangular base plate for the hinge.
At this time, I believe all of my examples are made of zinc.
The fact that most of the badge still retains a lot of the finish is also a good indication.

Yeah, the pin is just a bit of old wire someone has added at a later date IMO. When I was looking to find a similar example of this badge I did notice that a lot had a plate attachment underneath the hinge and catch. Handy to know that these are likely zinc badges. Also, it’s nice to know that in all probability, this is more than likely a tombak Deumer badge. That can’t be a bad thing

Just curious: is there an online spot where original pins and parts can be found? I have a few items which can use a little restoration.
For instance a W&L EK1 in good condition but lacking the needle.
