'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Gold' being a non-maker-marked- and typical 'Buntmetall'-based (and period engraved!) example that comes stored in its maker- (ie. 'Hauptmünzamt - Wien'-) marked etui
Category:
The truly attractive - and fairly luxuriously-styled! - golden-class wound-badge (or: 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Gold') is executed in neat and/or fairly shiny, so-called: 'Buntmetall' and shows only moderate usage and/or minimal wear (as can be clearly seen on the pictures). The attractivce wound-badge comes naturally mounted onto its fully functional and typically 'thin'-shaped pin and has a totally unaltered (and naturally fully functional) catch ie. catch-set-up. The wound-badge has most certainly never cleaned and retains most (ie. almost all!) of its golden-toned (ie. 'feuervergoldeter') finish. It only shows some minimal tarnish (and has never been cleaned nor polished). It is - as stated above - void of a makers'-designation (something that is more often but not always the case). The black-coloured- (simulated leather-based- and/or: partly wooden-based) etui - comes also in an overall very nice, albeit moderately used, condition (it is just somewhat dusty ie. dirty simply caused by years of storage but totally void of any real damage or alike). The etui - that also shows a blue-toned 'Hautmünzamt'-sticker glued on its back - has a beige-coloured (simulated 'velvet') interior: this inlay shows a clear imprint of the wound-badge (that was most certainly stored in this manner for decades). Of additional interest is, moreover, naturally the fact that this example shows a (period!) engraved text on its back that simply reads: 'Uffz. H. Zintel - Pi. (or.Plz.) - Stbs.Kp. - Inf.Rgt 123'. This attractive WB-set was recently found as such at a private-household in Germany and can with certainty be attributed to the Austrian maker (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Hauptmünzamt' as was based in the town on Wien ie. Vienna (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very attractive and with certainty desirable, golden-class WB-set that is nowadays most certainly not that easily encountered!
