        Hi Colin,

        Fine original unmarked SWB by Hauptmunzampt.

        If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

          I agree with Tom! Indeed a Hauptmünzamt from Vienna.

            Hans and Tom, many thanks for your swift reply. Can you tell if it’s early war, late war etc? Kind regards, Colin

                    Well spotted Ronny.

                    Now I have to go through my unmarked ones. ☺

                    The extra berry makes this badge interesting.

                      Hello Ronny,

                      imo this is no berry, only the shining of the light.

                      Regards Shaver

                        Yep, I would agree with this, it is most likely a glare. Here is another one I had on file with similar appearance.

                          I took some more photos. I don't think it is a 'berry'. The metal is definitely slightly raised at that point though.
                          Opinions welcome?

                            Good eyes Ronny! I didn´t see it until you posted about it. To me that is definitely not a glare of any kind.

                              I agree with Ronny and Hans. That is definitely not glare. It is a round, raised protrusion so either an "extra berry" or some kind of flaw. But on my examples it looks like an "extra berry".

                              Best regards,
