      If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

                Hi Sergey,

                Indeed looks like a very faint L/14 stamping on it. Hard to be sure because it is only the top 1/3 of the mark, can you get a bigger closeup of it?

                Thanks

                      Interesting Picture reminds me off the stamp design from L/14 which was used on the WB and IC.
                      Best regards, Andreas

                        Hi Sergey,

                        Thanks for the closeup. I agree with Andreas, it looks legit and seems to be a good match for the Orth stamps on some of the other badges. I will double check that tonight.

                        Thanks

                        Tom

                          Do you have a close up of the hinge of this piece as well please?
                          Kind regards,

                            Hi guys,

                            Comparing the mark on this IAB with known Orth L/14 stamps, I cannot find a match and think they are quite different. Here is a compare of a few Orth Wound Badges and also on an Orth EK1 out of Franki's EK1 book. The Orth stamps in Dietrich's EK1 book are also the same as these. Specifically notice the angle of the top part of the "1" compared to the slash mark.

                            So, unless I am missing a known Orth stamp, the mark on this IAB is not typical.

                            The fact that it is also very lightly stamped in is also weird. Both of these issues lead me to believe this mark is not original to the badge.

                            Tom
