Notes to remember:
Materials used: Zinc and Butmetall. The Steinhauer & Lück Company made GABs in hollow and solid versions. The early hollow badges were made from buntmetal and are very desirable to collectors. S&L badges can be found with many hardware variants. One variant is very similar to Juncker used hardware. This was the main reason why many people mistakenly connected them to the Juncker Company. However, strong evidence (from other combat badges) is now connecting them to the Steinhauer & Lück Company (please check for a detailed explanation in Frank Heukemes book).
Rarity scale: in buntmetall 7/10; zinc version 6/10
