Indeed, textbook later war Deumer in typical excellent condition.

These solid-back Deumers were always made from zinc, not tombak. The heavy silver plating can make it confusing, but just know they are always zinc underneath 100% of the time.

For a later war badge Deumer for sure knew how to finish these pieces! Nice score!

Hello

A nice oval-crimp Deformed Leaf ISA...
This nickname is in reference to the unique shape of the 3R wreath leaf

As the others have stated, this example that has been linked to the firm of W. Deumer.

Attribution has been established with the discovery of vertical-crimped Deformed Leaf ISA's with Deumer addressed paper packets.

Best Regards, fischer
