Paul R Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 On the upper photo, what is the word being covered up by the "Bry" of your name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Miller Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 On the upper photo, what is the word being covered up by the "Bry" of your name?It reads "Im Jahre deutscher Schichsalswende 1933"- roughly, "In the year of the German Twist of Fate/fateful turn, 1933, and on the other side, "Unser die Zukunft Adolf Hitler" (meaning something along the lines of the Our future is Adolf Hitler"). Ran a Google search for the latter phrase, came up with this: http://www.hagalil.com/judentum/feiertage/...kunst/laerm.htm (the odd objet d'art pictured features the same medal).Several pictures of the medal also appear at http://www.teutoburger-muenzauktion.de/Web...on813_page2.htm .Best wishes,~ Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
