Moderately used, 'Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen in Silber' being a non-maker-marked- and/or zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen of the so-called: 'pillow-crimped'-pattern (as was produced by a to date still unidentified maker)

This is an attractive - and actually scarcely encountered! - example of a: 'Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen in Silber' (or: silver infantry assault badge ie. IAB) being a non-maker-marked- and/or zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen of the so-called: 'pillow-crimped'-pattern as was produced by a to date unidentified maker and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. I deem minimally used- and/or worn-), condition. The badge on offer here concerns a later-war-period, zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based specimen that has lost most of its silver-coloured finish but that has, nevertheless, maintained an attractive appearance, still showing pronounced detail as to be expected. The badge has never been cleaned nor polished (and is still also a tiny bit dirty ie. stained- ie. tarnished as mentioned above). As stated above, does it deal with a so-called: 'pillow-crimped'-pattern that naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. Regrettably, is the pin 'loosely-attached' by means of a nail (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a nice and honest silver-class, so-called: 'pillow-crimped'-pattern IAB that comes in an overall nice condition!
