        Hello,

        Probably a bronze CCC. The maker of that clasp is A.G.M.u.K. (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Metall und Kunststoff) in Gablonz. Those markings are found on the hinge side of the reverse. On the catch side of the reverse is the name of the artist that designed the Close Combat Clasp, W.E. Peekhaus of Berlin.

        Best regards,
        Tom

            Hi H.W

            ......To clean it start with warm water, add a small amount of liquid soap, mix well and use a soft toothbrush to gently clean. Rinse well with clean water. Pat and air dry. Follow up with a coat of petroleum jelly. Let the jelly soak in for a day, wipe off any excess, and your badge will have a nice protective coating, as well as look a lot better.

              No doubts for me either, an original AGMuK clasp. Likely a bronze grade, something we have seen quite a bit on ground dug badges is that the finish turns golden color.

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

                I have found if you use a hair dryer on your badge after you put on the PJ it really gets that PJ in all the cracks and other and will do a real good job for you.
