    IAB bronze or silver??

    Hi all,
    today I received a IAB badge, it should be a bronze, but I am not sure?
    I think it is silver? Also have two little small holes on the wreath, it is that normal?
    Maybe anoybody know who is the maker?
    I can post some better pictures today afternoon.
    Thank you for help.
    Best regards
    Sasha

    Hi Sasha,

    That's an original BH Mayer/F&R design IAB made out of buntmetal. The badge really had a hard live judging from the scans, just look at the eagle's beak .

    About the grade, I wouldn't know, I would go for a silver grade.

    I can't see the holes in the wreath to be honest, if there are holes in the wreath they are normally an alternative for attaching the badge tight to the uniform. I wonder why this badge would have any holes as the pin set up is completely intact...
    Kind regards,
    Giel

      Hi Giel,

      thank you for quick answer, I think it is silver too.
      I have bought this badge as a bronce grade from mr. Weitz last week, but there's silver colour in the deeper places on the medal
      Please look at the picture I have marked the holes.

      Regards
      Sasha




      Here two more photos with camera:
