CLOSE COMBAT CLASP "S&L"

SOLD!

A nice bronze Close Combat Clasp attributed to the maker "Steinhauer & Luck" of Ludenscheid.

It is constructed out of a die struck, zinc-alloy base that has been bronze washed. The obverse depicts a crossed model 24 grenade and K98 bayonet with oak leaves, acorns and lined rays all beneath a Heer open winged eagle clutching a swastika in its talons. The reverse of the badge has no maker marks and it shows the typical 6 dots to keep the back plate in place.

It has the correct magnetic catch, hinge and sturdy coke bottle pin. The pin, hinge and catch all work well. The plate is steel and magnetic. Hardware and plate both shows bronze finish.

The badge depicts beautiful details throughout and the bronze finish is still present .

A very nice example.
