The scan does not 100% accurately portray the silver obverse, though reverse is pretty accurate. Any scanning techniques appreciated..

I would say that it is a good one with the burnished silver high areas on it. Frank showed me a badge like that and I think it was also an IAB. But I must warn you to wait for expert opinions and take mine with a grain of salt.
Best, Sal

Hi All!

I think, that a badge original. At me it is no doubt.
The manufacturer of this badge Frank&Reif Stuttgart.

Hi Guys,

Definitely original but not F&R.

BH Mayer would be my best guess as recently discussed in these two threads
