Dear majorpayne,
The WB should ok, although I know an original example of this maker where the mark sits in the center of the reverse.
The Wernstein is the hinge (as opposed to the more typical shephard´s pin with unique Wernstein hinge for this maker) variety and ok. I attached a reverse pic of the other Wernstein version.
The unmarked one is the PAB attributed by some to Juncker, by others to Zimmermann. It has probably a hinge and pin replacement. I attached an example with no repairs.

I really like the wound badge. It looks ok to me. However, I haven't been lucky with my last few tank badges. I'd probably gamble again and post them here like you have done.
The middle one doesn't look ok as far as the gun on the turrent but it could be age on an old zinc piece. Again, I've been bitten on my last three tank badges I also want to hear the other opinions.
My vote again Wound badge
Panzer badges

Dear majorpayne,
Yes, it is ok (and the pictured bronze Wernstein PAB as well) but has the hinge and pin replaced. But it is a Zimmermann, not a Juncker. There has been some confusion and these were called Juncker type by some, Zimmermann by others just judging by the identical hinge/pin/catch. But a definite difference can be made by looking at the eagles e.g. Lillegutt, clearly showed the difference - item next to item - in a nearby thread "my PAB collection thus far"!
Cheers, Frank H.Cheers, Frank
