    Donor Medallion for German POW's 1915 - Any Information?


    Recommended Posts

    I've been offered this donor medallion. From the shape, I take it to be for a woman. One side has a design, which could well be the forerunner of WW2 Partizan's Kampf Badge, vertical sword striking into a nest of snakes with the script - Help for P.O.W.s German 1915. The reverse has a hawk / eagle perched on a globe, I'm not too knowledgeable with German heraldry does any member know from which German state it may signify. The medal appears to be copper with a silver coating. I see this medallion for the first time if members have any information. I'd be pleased to hear from them. At what price do they retail at ?

    Regards

    Chris,

    Please bear in mind that macro pictures exaggerates even minor flaws and damage. Actually holding the piece in the hand, the condition is not so bad, crudely made yes, I rather hoped someone would put up another picture of one, to use as a comparison. I've a suspicion, they are all crudely made.

    Regards
