Michael, Yours is a textbook example. In the very late medals from the 3800-4000 range it is where I have seen the very small differences that Erich talks about like the line not almost touching the H. In all the 1st pattern and 2nd patterns under 3500 the details seem to be the same IMO.
To go along with what JoeW wrote regarding how some were not near the action who earned the first pattern BO was Jakob Grimminger who stood guard at a bridge a few miles away from the Feldherrnhalle. I think both patterns were important in the history of the NSDAP. Anyone else like to add their opinions?
