A Panzer Assault Badge in Silver for 25 Engagements in Presentation Packet.
A late War example, in excellent condition, the wreath is in grey zinc and shows no signs of ever having been silver-plated. The tank retains all original factory finish, as does the ‘25’ plaque. Scooped-out back to the wreath, maker’s mark ‘GB’ [Gustav Brehmer, Markneukirchen] on the back of the tank. Magnetic metal pin, hinge and hook. 3 hollow brass rivets in the back. The packet is pale brown, printed in black Gothic ‘Panzer=Kampfabzeichen Silber 25’, and the badge is still in its original tissue paper wrapping, extremely good condition and extremely rare to find this badge in its paper packet and wrapping £800-£1,000
