The link I posted won't work so don't bother but I found this article with a Google search. I had to translate the article but it states that approximately 22,00 silver PAB's were issued and 12,500 bronze were issued...don't know if this is correct though Try it yourself @wikipedia.org ...tank combat badge

The number of 22,000 for silver badges for Panzer crews? Production of Panzers was over 25,000. Even if you used only four men per Tank that is only 5,500 crews that won awards. I see many Bronze PABs for sale and most of the PABs in my collection are Bronze. Only 12,000 awarded? I do not think the information is correct from the web site.
