Attractive - albeit moderately used! - 'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber' (or: silver-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a hollow-type, non-maker-marked- and/or zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen by the: 'Gebr. Wegerhoff'-company

This is a truly attractive - and I deem moderately used and actually not that easily found! - example of a so-called: 'Panzerkampfabzeichen in Silber' (or: silver-class panzer-assault badge or PAB) being a typical, non-maker-maker-marked- and/or typical zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen as was with certainty produced by the: 'Gebr. Wegerhoff'- (ie. 'GWL'-) company and that comes in an overall nice- (and I deem only moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The badge on offer here concerns a mid- (ie. later-) war-period, zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based specimen that has regrettably lost some of its silver-coloured finish: this has simply faded-away (ie. 'migriert') over the years. The piece retains, however, still a very attractive appearance still showing pronounced detail as to be expected by a badge by this particular maker. 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 is the piece a non-maker-marked example that shows the various characteristics - such as for example the typically-shaped catch - as only seen on PABs as produced by the: 'Gebr. Wegerhoff'- (ie. 'GWL'-) company as based in the town of Lüdenscheid: it deals with a so-called: 'hollow zinc-pattern' (as is uniquely numbered with the reference-number: '1.7.2.' according to the excellent reference-work entitled: 'The Panzer-Assault badge of WWII' by my Belgian friend Philippe de Bock). The attractive piece naturally shows all the details as to be expected for a badge by this particular maker. It was recently found as such at a German private household and was never before part of a collection. The piece comes naturally mounted onto its fully functional pin- and/or catch(set-up) as can be seen on the pictures. Simply a very attractive and honest silver-class PAB by the desirable 'Gebr. Wegerhoff'- (ie. 'GWL'-) company that is accordingly priced!
