Here is a new PAB that arrived into my collection the other day. Fakes of this one have caught me off guard once or twice before. That will not happen again.
I hope you like it,
Ralph.

You're not the only one Ralph. Fakes of these are extremely deceptive but this one is a good badge and in nice condition too. Good addition to your collection!
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
There's absolutely nothing wrong with this one Ralph. Very nice addition to a fine collection.

This would win hands down for me too.

Indeed a beauty, Ralph...and well-photographed! Love the finish on this one as well as the gorgeous detail, especially the eagle's head!
cheers, Glenn
The eagle on this Aurich badge is the grand daddy of all PAB's, the 'Design Type 1' that was originally a part of the first design created by Juncker. The detailed, realistic design made it a favourite with the top award manufacturers at the time. It's direct influence can be seen on badges made by Wurster, Assmann, S&L, FLL, B&N, GWL and a couple of so far unknown makers besides the two already mentioned.
Nice badge Ralph, I missed this first time around!
Regards, Ned.
Edit: Just noticed that the full German name thingy that auto corrected 'PAB' to 'Panzer Kampfabzeichen' is no longer working either besides the 'Likes' button doing a Lord Lucan, I wonder if it's also the same for the 'CCC', 'GAB' and 'IAB' acronyms?
Edited edit: On the strength of the above edit, obviously it is.....
