    hollow silver Tombak IAB: anybody that has this style badge?

    Dear all,

    This fine hollow Tombak IAB is a recent acquisition of mine. Does anybody have the same badge? Could it be tied to a maker?

    Note three things about it:

    -cut out swastika
    -cut away leaf near rifle butt (something often considered as sure sign of a fake!)
    -hardly visible acorn detail (also something most collectors do not want to see in an original badge!)

    Overall, this badge shows great quality and a very nice eagle.

        Dear Frank,

        Never seen that design before but I agree with you that it's a wonderfull and delicate looking IAB.

        Think you'll have to wait untill Roman wakes up, I'm sure he'll come up with something that matches this badge.

        Frank could you post a close up of the folding marks on the pin as well as a profile of the catch?

          Sorry Correction


          Just remembered that I save a cut-out swas IAB from one of Detlevs updates.

          Pic's arent that good but I think it's a match. What do you think

            Dear Philippe,

            Yes, 100% match.

            The hinge is a block hinge, the catch is a ?-roundwire catch that is just a bit bent on mine.
            Cheers, Frank

              Dear Frank,

              Just a thought, cut-out swas, identical ? shaped roundwire catch and block hinge as on the PAB's

              http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...ad.php?t=49553

              Who knows, could be one and the same unknown maker

                Hi Frank,
                very nice badge. Have seen one of these before in another collection and take it for authentic. Stuttgart show buy?

                  Dear Skip,

                  No, I got it before Stuttgart. My only two Stuttgart buys were a PM marked para and the Juncker PAB!
                  Cheers, Frank

                    Thats impossible, there wasn't a Juncker PAB for sale at the Stuttgart show

                            My friend bought back the same badge from a show in Arizona. He said a dealer there had about 5 of them. Are you sure it is not a repop? I know that the stamped badhges are the easiest to make so maybe this is fake.

                              My friend has one like this that he brought from a show in Arizona. He said the dealer had 3 other badghes just like it. I think it looks too new and unusual.
