This kind of hinge/pin/catch assembly can be found on L/18 maker marked IABs.
Wait for the IAB guys to chime in for better opinions.

Hi Chris,

I think you ment to say that the L/18 mm can be found on wound badges with the same type of pilow crimp.

I still have to see the first L/18 marked IAB with this set-up. Since we know what type of IAB's BH mayer made both in buntmetall and zinc I don't expect us to find a marked L/18 pilow crimp IAB.

The only pillow -crimped IAB with mm we have ever seen was marked L/21 but there is no consensus on the authenticty of that mark. So until now we don't really know the maker of these IAB's.
