Attractive - but clearly used- and/or worn! - 'Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen' (or: General Assault Badge ie. GAB) being an unmarked 'Buntmetall'-based and/or actually scarcely seen 'hollow-back'-version as was produced by the: 'Otto Schickle'-company

This particular example - being as stated above a non-maker-marked, silver-toned- and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based piece - has maintained a neat (and typical 'Buntmetall'-like!) age-patina and comes naturally mounted onto its functional (thin-shaped- and/or silver-toned) pin and 'flattened' catch set-up (as is more often seen with pieces by this particular maker). The piece is very detailed and pronounced: it has, however, clearly been used and worn and has lost regrettably most of its silver-toned finish (and shows its copper-toned underlay as can be seen on the pictures). The piece shows, however, still great pronounced detail as to be expected. I deem that this is a typical piece that was produced by - and can be attributed to - the: 'Otto Schickle'-company as was based in the town of Pforzheim. Still an attractive - clearly worn and actually rarely seen! - 'hollow-back'-type and 'Buntmetall'-based specimen that is I deem accordingly priced: a better preserved example would fetch much more than my asking-price!
