                Combatworn pieces has a certain charm to them - congrats. I hate to say it but the finnish looks postwar applied. Try a gentle tuch with a earcleaner dipped in acetone or nailpolishremower. If it leaves goldpaint on the cotton its postwar.

                Cheers Thomas

                    I just tested it, no gold residue on the qtip..
                    I think the pictures look a little rough, it was overcast and snowy this morning, the sun is out now, Ill take some more pics here and see what they look like..

                              Van,

                              IMO,it is a good looking Schwerin zinc badge.From the second set of pictures it appears that it has retained most of it's original finish.

                              Regards,Martin.
