Superb, 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Silber' (or: silver-class wound-badge) being a neatly maker- (ie. '100'-) marked example by the: 'Rudolf Wächtler u. Lange'-company that comes stored in its period pouch as issued

This is an attractive example of a silver-class wound-badge (or: 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Silber') being an example that is clearly maker-marked on its catch-set-up (as always with pieces by this maker) with the makers'-code: '100' (signifying that it is a piece as was produced by the 'Rudolf Wächtler & Lange' company) and that comes stored in its (period!) light-green-toned- and typical 'Zellstoff'-based pouch as issued and that come in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The badge - which is executed in nicely bright-silvered, zinc-based metal (ie. 'Feinzink') - shows some obvious wear ie. age and has a correct - and fully functional - pin- and/or (molded) catch (-set-up) in place. The badge has, however, never been cleaned and shows evident tarnish and/or wear: it truly retains most (ie. all) of its silverish finish. The badge - that was I deem never cleaned nor polished - is nicely maker-marked: '100' (on the round catch set-up as is common with these WBs) signifying that it is a piece as was produced by the 'Rudolf Wächtler u. Lange' company, based in Mittwaida. The neat - and actually scarely encountered! - light-green-toned- and/or typical 'Zellstoff'-based pouch comes in an equally nice and complete condition: it shows the printed makers'-designation: 'Mittwaidaer Metallwarenfabrik Rudolf Wächtler u. Lange - Mittweida' on its back (as can be noticed on the pictures). Simply an attractive, clearly maker-marked an complete silver WB-set that is most certainly accordingly priced!
