        Looks like Karl Wurster,
        not sure about catch plate it looks different from what i know for this variant.
        Can you take side shot of hinge and catch ?
        Lets see what others have to say.

        regards,

          A good massive Wurster. A replaced catch perhaps? As Eddie said, a side shot of the hinge (in focus) would be of great help.

                  Should the reverse not be scooped? This looks to be completely flat, or is it the pictures?

                      Mark,
                      The massive zinc Wursters were very close to being flat. They demonstrate a bit of a dish to them but certainaly not scooped. Considering the catchplate on this example I belive it to be a 1.2.5. varient set-up according to Philippes's superb book titled "The German Panzer Assult Badge" The bible of PAB collecting.

                        Cheers Chet, I was also consulting the good book on this one, thanks for the clarification re flat/scooped/dished.

                        Regards,

                          A shot of the obverse in natural light would be very beneficial IMO to determine remaining finish.
