    Interesting catch on this unmarked GAB

    See how the C catch sets in a trench? Common or Rare? Any thoughts on maker? Thx

    Yes, a known original variant. Not very common, but not rare either.

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

      I agree with Tom here. Rare or not, a very attractive design IMO
      Kind regards,

          Yep, but we already know of B&NL GABs so this is likely not the maker IMO.

                Well for starters there are already B&NL-marked GABs that have a completely different design than this GAB you are showing.

                Secondly, the catch itself is round wire, which was used by many GAB makers, so its really impossible to narrow down a maker based simply on the catch.

                To connect a badge positively to a maker, we would need to see several connection points. Not just a single catch or a hinge or a pin, etc. Its typically a combination of these items that can point to a certain maker.
