    Your thoughts on this Bronze A.G.M.u.K. Nahkampfspange please

    My first post and very much a newcomer to WW2 German militaria.

    This Close Combat Clasp is newly aquired and is my first real venture into awards/badges/clasps.

    I have researched this heavily on this forum and am now 95% confident that it is a good one, but some expert confirmation would be reassuring.

    The conclusions that I have reached, if correct, is that this is zinc, of late war production, a small font A.G.M.u.K. and is referred to as a type 1.5.3.

    I believe that this type is quite common, and consequently has a lower value than other makers?

    The thing that I really liked about this clasp was the great condition and also the detail.

    As I only intend to own one CCC then I'll be more than happy with this one if it is a legit wartime production.

    One concern that I initially had was the packet that it came in was fake!

    Your views and comments would be very much appreciated; I would still like to be sure about this one.






























    Regards,

    Dave.

      Dave,
      My reference book is packed away so I can't confirm the exact type, but I know if I saw this one for sale at a good price I'd snatch it up in a heartbeat. It's a beautiful ccc in excellent condition!

        Thanks for the prompt response Dale, very much appreciated, that's really good to know.

        Yes, I thought the detail was great and the condition excellent for what is effectively a 70 year old clasp.

        I really like it...


        Kind regards,

        Dave.

              Hi Dave,

              Very nice original, and you have identified it correctly, a textbook 1.5.3 AGMuK in the CCC book. Great looking clasp, a keeper for sure.

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