Nationality German
Period c 1939-45

This was the medal for gallantry awards deemed not to merit the award of the Iron Cross, 2nd class. This is a mid-war example in bronzed zinc. Typically, these were often given for partisan actions in Poland, Russia and the Balkans. It has most of its bronze finish and a short, but clean piece of original ribbon.

testimonials

My order arrived this morning, thanks for the prompt delivery.

Two excellent original pieces, I must say.

Buckle is in minty condition retaining so much detail esp plummage on eagle's neck and chest, like to see those 'creases' on the legs also... a beautiful example of an early O&C buckle.

Belt is very interesting, rather thin, CROUPON stamped and also behind the tongue...maybe Allegmeine but no SS markings as you state. Beautiful piece none the less.

Thanks for a speedy transaction Chris, I am very happy with my purchase :)
