Sacred Treasure 5th class

[Uffz. Rohleder]

Yesterday i also got this nice Sacred Treasure - i cleaned the medal (without destroying the Patina) - it looked like someone puked on it

The ribbon were cleand and looked fadet.

 

It has 4 rivets. And as its the first one i ever has in my hands - it looks very nice (after cleaning)

 

How can you tell from which period this came from?

Another nice one. The fact that it has rivets makes it pre 15 August 1945, they went rivetless sometime after the war.

 

 

Cheers
