Unmarked Schwerin u-Boat badge?

[nzef1940]

Hopefully KM badge collectors could help confirm this badge is an unmarked Schwerin with a replaced hook?

Thanks in advance for your comments

Schwerin alright. I'd say the hinge has been re-attached as well.

Agree with Darell on this one

I agree, worn but original. No finish left, replaced catch and the hinge also looks resolded.
This is 4B variation according to timeline - the second most common variant, the classic "2nd pattern".
I enclose my 4B for comparison.
Cheers,
