Panzer assault badge in bronze – Rudolf Karneth, Gablonz

Panzer assault badge in bronze – Rudolf Karneth, Gablonz. Mid to late war semi-hollow PAB with RK makers on the back of the swastika. Remains in worn condition and has some of the bronze finish remaining on the front and retained the overall darkish look very well. The back shows a bright bronze color and is very well preserved. The crimped catch and hinge remain in good condition with some movement on the catch, commonly encountered on worn RK badges. However it is still crimped in and functional.
Comes with a Stam.Kp.Pz.Gr.E.Batl.8 Erkennungsmarker(dogtag). Came together, but I cannot confirm they belong together.
