Title Hungarian War Medal 1914-18, cased
Nationality Hungarian
Period c 1920s
Sold

This is the medal for the Hungarian part of the Austrian empire when it became a separate country in 1918 at the end of WW1. It has the Hungarian coat of arms on the front, with St Stephen's crown above, and on the reverse a steel helmet with 'Pro Deo et Patria' (for God and country). It is a silver finish on base metal.

It has its original card box, which is damaged at the corners and at the hinge. However, it has a nice clean original ribbon and is in GVF condition with most of its dull tone silver finish.

testimonials

Today I received your flag. It's very nice and looks genuine to me. Beautifull crisp colors! It looks barely used. It's a nice addition to my ww2 collection. I would even say, one of my top pieces.

Thanks for your excellent service and top communication!

I will check your site more often to see if you have more nice pieces.
