    Hi All

    I search the web and found that the price range of Lifesaving Medal: Prussian M1833-1918 is very large. I found a deal ask for 160 euro for one but I found another one ask for 450 euro for one.

    Could anyone tell me why did they have such large different in price?

    Thanks

    BP

    Given that this medal was awarded for lifesaving at the risk of the recipient's own life, it has always been undervalued-- probably because it is so :speechless: PUNY looking.

    I would look for one on a medal bar or with its award document. :beer:

    If you search on "lifesaving" on the top of main page (for the whole website-- some may be in a Third Reich section or under Individual Research etc etc) the various threads where we've shown what we have will come up.

    Hi Rick

    Thank you.

    I searched but I just found something talking about different variations in between WWI and WWII. For Prussian M1833-1918's variations, I can't found.

    Cheers

    There are two main sources in German about these medals (first in a journal, second in a book):

    Lothar Tewes

    in "Beitr?ge zur brandenburg-preu?ischen Numismatik" Heft Nr. 2 1995

    "Die preu?ischen Rettungs- und Erinnerungsmedaillen von 1833 bis 1918"

    Friedhelm Beyrei?

    "Rettungsmedaillen Deutscher Staaten 1782-1918" Norderstedt 2006

    Best regards, Komtur.
