Tank destruction in silver

[DKNYC71]

Dear Forum Members,


I wanted to solicit some information about this silver tank destruction badge I have recently acquired. What type is this considered: 1 or 2, early / late, and what type of tank (if any) I would appreciate all you kind help. Thanks to everyone in advance!

Regards,
Dave.

Hi Dave, you have here a very very nice TDB type 1. The tank should be magnetic, and you can check it with a magnet (but exist tanks in Buntmetall, so don't worry if the magnet doesn't work).

Simply stunning, well done Dave

Hello Dave,

Never owned one of these yet. But, if I did, this would be the exact type that I would want to have. Very nice one!

Best regards,
Tom

Very Nice Original TDB !

You have a very nice 100% original TDB there !! Green canvas backed are the most common seen, however they are also IMO one of the best types made. Tom

Dave:


You have a nice 1st pattern 'Single-handed' Tank Destruction Strip that is an "original".

Your other question:

The tank is supposed to represent the Panzer "IV" Ausf 'C' with the 75mm short-barrel gun.
The error is that the designer only put 3 'return wheels' on this when there were 4. He also
missed putting the 'hatch-door' on the turret side & only shows the vision port.
