Germany, Third Reich. A Wehrmacht Heer Flak Badge by Steinhauer & Lück

(Flakkampfabzeichen der Wehrmacht). Constructed of silvered cast zink, the obverse consisting of an oval oak leaf wreath, joined together at the bottom by ribbon, topped by a Wehrmacht eagle clutching a mobile swastika, surrounding a central Flak 88 with its barrel raised and extending beyond the edge of the wreath, the reverse with a folded sheet metal hinge, with a pointy vertical pinback and a flat catch that is soldered onto a plate, an unmarked example but displaying the characteristics of manufacture by Steinhauer & Lück of Lüdenscheid, such as the pronounced knuckles on the feet of the eagle, as well as the pronounced details on the Flak gun carriage, measuring 44.7 mm (w) x 60.00 mm (l), weighing 27.94 mm, with all of the silver finish lost through time, but a fine example of this award with intricate details, in overall near very fine condition.
