Oktober 1 Medal 1938

[Avitas]

Hi there,

Another medal from the general awards category, my Sudetenland occupation medal (Oktober 1 1938 Medal). It is one of the earlier pieces I purchased, and I believe one of the few original pieces I received from a certain dealer. It is very crisp and the ribbon bar is a no-glow. I don't think there are many fakes of this around, but it would feel good to have an opinion or two on it. Are there many different makers or variations on this medal? I know I am full of questions, but hey, isn't that what we're here for?

Thanks again

Pat

The Reverse, with the "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Fuhrer" slogan...

I feel that this one is a nice original as well. Can we please see the ribbon in it's entirity? I think that i might have had the Praque clasp at one point as well.

Sure thing Paul! Here are pics of the whole ribbon, and it does appear it had the Prague Castle bar at some time. Shame its not still there.

and the reverse, definite holes for something...

Looks fine, but like mentioned earlier ... someone had a Prague bar on that ribbon at one point.
