Incomplete 'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze' (or: bronze-class panzer assault badge or PAB) being a neat (I deem) somewhat later-war-period zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) version as was procuced by the: 'Frank u. Reif'-company

This is a neat - regrettably incomplete and I deem just moderately used and/or worn but nevertheless still nicely preserved! - so-called: 'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Bronze' (or: bronze-class panzer assault badge or PAB) being (I deem) a typical somewhat later-war-period- and non-maker-marked, zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen that was (I deem) procuced by the: 'Frank u. Reif'-company and that comes in an overall nice- (and I deem just moderately used-), condition. The badge on offer here concerns an (I deem somewhat later-war-period) typical zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen that retains most of its (bright) golden-toned finish: moreover, does this piece show nice pronounced detail and/or finish as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge is just a tiny bit stained- and/or tarnished as mentioned above. As stated above, is the piece a non-maker-marked example that shows the various characteristics - such as for example the typically-shaped pin-set-up - as only seen on PABs as produced by the: 'Frank & Reif'-company based in the town of Stuttgart: it deals with a so-called: 'maker-marked solid-zinc'-pattern award (as is uniquely numbered with the reference-number: '4.5.2.' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: 'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). Regrettably, does this example misses its catch (which was regrettably 'broken-off' during the years). The neat piece - which is quite pronounced - naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was found as such at a German private-household and was never before part of a collection. Simply a neat and honest, bronze-class 'variant'-PAB by the: 'Frank u. Reif'-company that is priced according to its missing catch but still fully untouched, condition!
