Superb - and very detailed! - 'Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Bronze' (or: bronze-class infantry assault-badge ie. IAB) being a maker- (ie. 'S.H.u.C.o. 41'-) marked example as executed in bronze-toned, zinc-based metal (ie. 'Feinzink')

This is a very attractive - I deem hardly worn and truly very detailed! - example of an: 'Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Bronze' (or: bronze-class infantry assault-badge ie. IAB) being a clearly maker- (ie. 'S.H.u.C.o. 41'-) marked example as executed in (darker-toned) bronze-coloured- and/or typical zinc-based metal (ie. 'Feinzink') and that comes in an overall very nice- (and fully untouched!), condition. This example is a clearly maker-marked award that shows the superimposed makers'-designation: 'S.H.u.C.o. 41' on its back (ie. being the abbreviation for the: 'Sohni, Heubach & Co.'-company as was based in the town of Oberstein). The award has a 'typical' catch and/or hinge set-up (which are both not altered nor damaged and which are both fully functional). The badge seems to be totally uncleaned and still retains a very nice, somewhat 'glossy' bronze-coloured age-patina: truly most (ie all!) of its original bronze-finish is present and/or preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). The (silver-coloured) pin and/or catch (ie. set-up-) are as stated above of course fully functional and present. The piece - which originates from a private-household in Germany - shows hardly any wear nor staining and can easily be graded 'virtually mint'. Simply a very attractive, 'Feinzink'-based bronze-class 'S.H.u.C.o.'-IAB that is with certainty priced according to its 'virtually mint' condition: one of the best such examples I ever had on offer!
