Verwundeten Abzeichen in Silber

Description

Silver Wound Badge (Verwundeten Abzeichen in Silber). With the outbreak of World War 2, on 1 September 1939, Hitler re-instituted a slightly modified version of the wound badge by altering the WWI pattern helmet on the badge to the newly designed M35 style helmet. The badge was awarded to both military and uniformed non-military personnel and later, (March 1943), to civilian personnel who received wounds as a result of enemy actions. The early tombak (Buntmetall) badge is not visible maker marked but can be attributed to production by the 'Hauptmünzamt' in Wien (Vienna). Of course are the pin and catch fully functional. Nice original tombak example in good used condition!
