My next IAB - mm Hermann Aurich

[Marcel Banziger]

Last week I received my first IAB and it got me hooked immediately so the second one already arrived within a few days after the first one. My new one is a silver zinc one makermarked Hermann Aurich from Dresden.
I'm pretty sure it's a good one but receiving a confirmation from the experts is always nice

Btw, I'm sure many more will follow soon hehe

Hi Marcel,

Welcome to the party my friend, pretty addicting aren't they?

Very nice Aurich, a pretty tough to find type of IAB. Their PABs are much more common for some reason. Doesn't look like too much finish is remaining, which is pretty typical. You can see the streaked, fading pattern of the finish on the reverse near the hinge, very typical look of Aurich badges.

Thanks a lot Tom! Yup, very addictive indeed. Already on the hunt for a next one now haha

Thanks as well for the confirmation on originality. Nice to see it's a harder to be found maker as well. Makes this already nice badge even more nice
