    IAB by GWL

    This is my first post, so greetings to everyone. I would appreciate some opinions on this badge please. I had no idea that they were so heavily reproduced. The obverse of the badge has a strange finish in places, almost like a scratched effect (gun butt). The dimensions are; height 62.40mm, width 47.58mm, weight 27.8 grams.

          An original produced by Gebruder Wegerhoff, Ludenscheid.
          Appears to have been cleaned.

            The finish looks very odd to me, I get the feeling that its refinished. Or at a minimum heavily cleaned as Ralph says.

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

              Hello

              I agree with Ralph and Tom...the finish has a strange look.
              Part of this could be your pics.

              I would guess this one once had a frosted-white finish over the silver plate base coat and has been aggressively cleaned at some point.

              Best Regards, fischer
