PAB(S) by RK & PAB(B) by C.E. Juncker(?)

[jwburchell]

Here are two for review and comment, please:

1. PAB(S) by Rudolf Karneth in later war grey alloy or zinc; die-cast with scalloped back and crimped-in ball hinge; magnetic pin and clasp and maker marked "R.K." in raised letters below the hinge. Except for slight traces the silver wash is gone from the obverse, but largely remains on the reverse.

2. PAB(B), unmarked, in metal alloy/zinc with bronzed finish, most of which remains on both sides. Die-cast or die-forged with solid, flat, concave reverse. Non-magnetic pin and clasp in the style indicating (if I understand correctly from my research) a badge manufactured by C.E. Juncker.

HI,
Both are good, although the 2nd Badge is no longer attributed to Juncker, it does have the SC Juncker set up,

I agree with Scott that both are good. The second one is an S&L with a Junker style setup...

Regards,
