My Wound Badges and other General Awards

Thanks for the advice and comments Dan

Well here is another of the pieces my Grandpa gave me last weekend from his souvenir collection from the war, a standard Wound Badge in Black, but my most treasured one now! It is in brass and has decent wear.

Cheers,

Hi Pat,

Another fine gift from your grandpa. I love the coloration on this one. I've seen several that are similar over the years in their wear, etc., and have always liked them. This is definitely one to be proud of, especially due to the family history of him bringing it back. Those pieces, I think, are always some of the best.

Thanks for sharing this one Pat,

I bought this Deutsche Volksplege Medal about a year ago and am satisfied with its authenticity, any comments on this one?

Thanks,

Here is a nice little Frozen Meat medal to add to the collection, a steal at $35. Has some silvering intact, better than my other ones!

Cheers,

Pat

Ha, you're right Windu, I was going to change it out but forgot. Ahh, a little careless since I broke my ribs and on the medication

Thanks!
