Wehrmacht 12-Year Long Service Medal by Moritz Hausch

[tyanacek]

Hello to all,

Here is a mint condition 12-Year Long Service Medal that I picked up at the SOS this past weekend. Along with the medal is the original glassine packet, the eagle device, an original length of ribbon, and the tissue wrap for the medal and eagle device. Original cornflower blue long service ribbon is just about impossible to find nowadays.

Best regards,

Tom

Hi Ulsterman,

This was out all day Thursday on a dealer's table a few rows from the end. He had it priced at $125. I actually picked it up, looked at it, then put it back on his table. On Friday, it was out on his table but with a price lowered to $100. At this point I bought it without hesitation. I think it was a really good deal.

Best regards,

Tom

Hello Douglas,

No! There are no markings at all on the ribbon eagle.
