the back, what would the approx. price should be ,I gave 50 bucks for it, did I pay to much?

I normally collect Imperial stuff and know very little about this era , but when I saw this medal at an estate auction I just like the look. What do you guys think of this 1957 revised Gold Cross, I have read some where that these medals should have 4 rivets on the back, but this one only have two.

Thanks, by giving me the links, are you saying the it was used on both the M4 Sherman and the 155mm Gun Motor Carriage M12? DO you know what it was used for?

What do I have here? I got it at an auction, and I have no idea what it is. I think it may be for a tank or some other type of armor vehicle. Take a look; what is it and what type of vehicle would have used it?

I would like to post photos of my hate Belt, it have 26 buttons ( mostly German) . can any one help with the ID of the swirl brass buttons, or the two small navy buttons.?

Thanks for your honest opinion, I am not too upset, but I was hoping. I got it off of e-bay for a BUY-IT-NOW for 50 bucks, now if I would have gotten the same badge off of ?Snyder's Treasures? web page for $1,999.99, then I would be upset. I think that it is worth 50 bucks( they get 20 bucks + for real bad copies on e-bay), and It will do until the real thing come along. Thanks again- ( do any one have a photo of a good badge?)

My guess is the 'unknown' stamp is the silver content mark: 800, 900, 935 - it's a bit to blurry to make out. Unfortunately, I can't help you with the rest of the badge.

Happy New Year.

Scott- thank you, it is hard to see, but it look like 925 to me would that be a good number?-Georg

I have learned a lot from reading this forum, now that I have joined, I would like you opinion on this badge. This question have been posted on other forums , but it got no response, please check out the photos and give me your opinions. This one is mark on the rear center with ?C. E. Junker Berlin?, a crescent moon, a crown, and an unknown mark. The pin has a T hinge and it is half flat /half round, it appears to have silver type patina (non- MAGNETIC) and I think pretty good detail. I know very little about these badges and any opinions would be appreciated!
