Rudolf Karneth Infantry Assault Badge in Bronze. The badge is unmarked, like all of them made by this manufacturer. Nicely and detailed made, with a slight curving, as well as a separately curved eagle. The bronze coating is well-preserved, such badges are often highly diffuse and bronze is absorbed into the zinc base. In our case, the bronze was preserved by 80%, the badge is practically without traces of use and wear. On the right side of the badge (front side look) there is a factory defect in the struck of the wreath, in the area of the second oak leaf, which was chopped off even before the badge passed the bronze coating. An extremely rare badge on the collector's market.
