The dog tag or 'Erkennungsmarke' shows normal signs of wear. This bataillon was formed in November 1939 and supplied/trained soldiers for different Pionier Bataillons, Panzer Pionier Bataillons and Minen Pionier Bataillons. In October 1944 the bataillon was part of Division 466. In March 1945 the division and her units where mobilized during the Westgoten-Bewegung and put into action in Raum Bocholt-Dorsten.
A Stammkompanie was a unit that trained the soldiers. Often the soldiers of this kompanie were soldiers who had frontline experience and/or where no longer fully usable on the front due to injuries. Of course this changed later in the war and they also where put into action as there was a shortage of (front)soldiers.
