I recently obtained some nice 1960s DDR medals from my good friend Rick via trade. Two of them have 900 silver mark on their reverses just under the DDR wreath. One bronze color NVA True Service was superb! One 900 silver NVA True Service medal showed its patina. The NVA Verdienst medal also have 900 silver on its back and show its patina,too. Yes,I do own another 900 silver NVA True Service medal variant with 900 above the wreath. Here are some pictures. James

Hey James - Congrats in getting earlier versions of the DDR medals for your collection.
