Iron division medal question

[urza1]

Hello, im searching this award for a long time but the only medal was without ribbon, and ribbon is more scarce than medal to be found.

I will ask if you freikorps collector will confirm that there is only one strike version, and if you know some seller online specialized in freikorp and contemporany militaria.

Hoping i choose the right area to post, thanks to all contributors and will glad to see your iron division medals!

As far as I know, there was only one die strike in Alpacca and silver versions. 3000 were awarded. It's a very difficult medal to find these days. As far as I know, there aren't any for sale on any online dealer sites.

Here is mine.

Perfect thanks. Will stay on this for reference.

Use caution when buying an Eiserne Div. medal.

The fraudsters have yet to perfect a copy, so study originals versus fakes... they stick out like sore thumbs.

With, or without the ribbon they are quite valuable.
