        It looks to me like your badge is a Juncker type 1.23.1 in mint to near mint condition.
        See pages 258-259 of Frank Heukemes' GAB textbook. These are not common GABs; in order to make certain that it is an original badge, as I believe it is from your scans, I would weigh and measure it. The proper specs are given on page 257 of Frank's book. It looks like you have a very nice addition to your collection.

              I believe these have only been found unmarked until now, so the maker of this piece remains unknown. I think there is quite some evidence around, showing that the maker connection through the hardware is rather unsubstantiated. Remember, it needs to be proven that maker xyz actually made this piece, not the other way around...


              A very nice original though.
