The badge, for which this pin is the miniature, was instituted on 1 June 1940 for the crews of armoured vehicles other than tanks, ie self-propelled gunners, Panzer Grenadiers, anti-tank units, medics and support units within the Panzer division. This badge is 1.5cm high (excluding the pin itself).
The bronze finish is clearly visible throughout. However, the pot metal base shows through in places. There is a kink in the pin, but otherwise the whole piece is quite sound with no repairs.
