Mystery flak badge

[Patrick W]

This strange badge just came in with a mix of badges and I have never seen anything quite like it. It is nickle silver, the wreath is 100% Deumer design whilst the eagle is Wiedmann/Hobacher.

I'm not aware that any of these companies produced early flak badges not in zinc.

The quality is really nice, it is not a casting but a struck badge, the pin and catch are probably replacements.

Any ideas??

Very common fake often marked Brehmer. There are a number of these fakes posted to the WAF occasionally. I think one was up not more than a few weeks ago.
