No battle damage but it's marked by the US 462nd Ordnance Evacuation Team. This is really reflecting the end phase of the war - to quote Hauptmann Horst Zobel, the commander of the Pz.Abt.Müncheberg "our tanks were from depots, part training tanks, part firing ranges, that had been returned to a serviceable order as far as possible with the existing spare parts... these tanks were basically intact, although they were NOT new. We could not test-fire the cannons, although this did not cause a problem on the battlefield.".
It's also known that obsolete vehicles were not always even listed in unit dispositions.
