Infantry assault badge in bronze – Otto Schickle, Pforzheim

Infantry assault badge in bronze – Otto Schickle, Pforzheim. Hollow tombak(buntmetall) badge with typical Schickle design and C shaped catch. The badge was nicely worn and shows some slightly oxidated tombak coming through on the worn areas. The badge has held its dark tone finish nicely and is free of damage or repairs. Far more uncommon than its silver counter part.
The original price of 2.60 Rm is still visible on the back of the K98.
