Hi Colin,
It's a Deschler IAB. In appearance close to the Rettenmaier and Juncker pieces.
Yours is in really nice condition and imo these have a very appealing design.

Many thanks for the information Job. Your help is much appreciated. Can you tell is it early war, late war etc? Kind regards, ColinComment

Hi Colin,
I think this is actually a Rettenmaier, look at the talons. Deschler and "Mutants" have pebbled talons whereas Rettenmaiers are segmented like what we see on this example:

TomIf it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a littleNew Book - The German Close Combat Clasp of World War II

Thank you for your time Tom. It’s always good to know more about a piece. I’m assuming no issues with regards to originality irrespective of the manufacturer?
Kind regards,

Hi Colin
No issues with your badge in my opinion, a well aged original.
It is definitely not an unmarked version of the Deschler L/10 marked badges. Check out the reverse profile of the following comparison between a marked L/10 and unmarked badge. Both these have identical profiles linking the two. Yours has many differences.
regards
Graeme
