Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Bronze, Vienna Design, Soft Scoop.
A new addition to my IAB collection. 
The maker of this example is as of yet, unknown. It is referred to as a soft scoop or scooped K98. This example also is referred to as a "raised guides variant". This example has absorbed most of the bronze finish and suffers a very little bit from zinc pest. It is one I did not have yet. :rolleyes:

Traces of the bronze finish can still be seen on the edges.
