RD3884.)NUMBERED GENERAL ASSAULT BADGE FOR 50 ENGAGEMENTS: a gem quality old fake that's one that was intended to deceive. It's remarkable. Ask for more up-closed and detailed photos should you be interested in buying this old stunner. You will not be able to discern any difference between this one and several of others currently being offered by two well-known Canadian websites. Wartime alloy wreath still has its silver frosting which has handsomely and convincingly toned with years of patina. Seriously, you really need to ask for more pics. Eagle motif is finished with a black gun metal application as is the separately applied '50 plaque below. Reverse is similarly silver frosted and now tarnished....oh, so friggen' convincing. With four perfectly domed rivets. Note the quality hinge and tapered pin (identical to those on the websites described)...hinge and 'C' hook catch are mounted inside crimped inserts. Marked with raised relief maker's mark 'RK'. Identical too to the specimens illustrated in Niemann's Orders and Decorations of Germany 1871-1945 page 612 (top two illustrations). EXC++++
