    JB&Co IAB

    Well here is the newest addition to my Gablonz family. Not rare by any means, but mot that common either. I wish the silver wash was still present, but the details (pebbled acorns and leaves) on this badge really stand out.

    Hope you like it as much as I do!

    Thanks, and best regards!

    Hi Sean,

    Very nice pick up. These JB&Co IABs have some great detailing and yours is nicely marked as well. Beauty.

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

        I don't know exactly how to classify them as far as rarity, but I know I've been looking for a marked one for over 10 years now without success, so for me they are at least seldom if not rare.

        Good score!

          Thanks Gents!

          I guess I was just in the right place at the right time. Now to find the dozens of others that I am looking for

          Best regards,

            This bottom left maker mark is quite rare! I hace around 70 ground dug and I dont have a single one with such mark - and I live in Czech Republic, where this one was produced.

              Wow...I guess didn't realize just how rare this IAB is? Is it because the "J" is straight verses the slanted "J"?

              Thanks!

                No, it's because unmarked ones are fairly common but any marked ones are very hard to find!

                  I see...thanks Dale. Does anyone know when these were produced/manufactured?

                  Best regards,
