I got this recently and was curious if someone could tell me Zinc or Buntmetal? TIA and all the best, Jonathan

Hi Jonathan...

Even without seeing the reverse, I think we can safely say that it's a zinc piece due to the non cut-out swastika. The reverse should show the hinge and catch mounted on to plates for better adhesion to the wreath.

Here?s a side-by-side comparison of buntmetal (left) and zinc (right) badges.

Obverse.
