Minesweeper - Wilhelm Hobacher

[amiklic1]

I have just bought this badge from Klaus Butschek. As mint as it can be.
I was looking for this manufacturer which, I think, is pretty hard to find, at least in this state.

Hope you guys like it ;-)

I'm amazed how well preserved it is, really.

It's a zincer but with no bubbling at all. It must be copper plated before final finish, which serves as a barrier between the zinc base and the silver and gilt finish.

My main focus are tombac badges, but I can't resist something this nice.

Nice catch

Terrific example

I do not think there is a lot of difference between yours and Norms, condition wise. Both look great
