Hi.

I just got this Romanian and have no idea what it is.
Does anyone know?
What would a fair price for this be if I put it on the e-stand?

Best regards,
André

Hi
The medal is for the 'crusade against communism' - it was awarded to axis forces

It would be worth - hummm perhaps 10 pounds as there is no ribbon and the ring is a bit mashed, they are not particulary hard to get in good condition.

cheers
Chris.

oops: banghead: i posted the price before the packet went up and there was only the medal, the packet is a nice bonus being worth more than the medal,

maybe you would post the packet in the packets forum and see what Marcus and co say as they can give you a price for the packet

Thanks for all the help mate.
I will post it in the packet forum and hopefully get a opinion on a fair price to set on this.

yes, the envelope is quite scarce...the medal is quite commonly found...easiest would be to put it for sale on ebay and the market will decide how much it is worth...Cheers, Torsten.

Hi,
the commemorative medal of campaign 1941-42 Crusade medal anti comunist
( CRUCIADA IMPOTRIVA COMUNISMULI) was istituited 1/4/1942 decree n******176; 1014
from King Michel I. This medal are assigned at all axis allied for the war aganist URSS
in particular the italian troops have an rare bar with the script (MAREA NIGRA) black sea.
The paper packet (I never see before) IMO is very rare.
