A German Second War 25 General Assault Badge.
A very good example of the number 25 General Assault Badge produced by RK (Rudolf Karneth). To the face side excellent finish remaining to the oak leaf wreath, good chemically patinated grey finish to the highly impressive down swept wing national eagle with the swastika within its claws. Minor losses to the finish on the blade of the K98 bayonet and the head of the M.34 stick grenade. To the reverse side the maker’s logo of ‘RK’ in raised relief within a circle, its standard steel wide tapering pin, original hook and hinge all in place. Four delicately fitted domed rivets, which attach the eagle to the main wreath,
excellent condition £1,200-£1,600
