Hi Koen,

Looks like a good late war S&L with crimped hardware, but I've never seen one so minty fresh like that before. Is there a story behind it?

Best regards,

It would be nice to see better pictures without flash.

Agree with Norm. Zinc S&L CAB, crimped variant but finish looks suspiciously fine... These badges do not maintain their finish well. Obverse details seem quite weak - on the gun, eagle chest and claws. This may be caused by the flash so as Hans has said, pictures with flash off would be helpful. Here is my crimped S&L for comparison.
Cheers,
Hubert

Original , but would agree finish looks alittle suspect for this maker.
