Current market value of these two Prussian medals?

[Klaus O.]

Dear imperialites,

I have been offered two medals:

1st : Preussen, Landwehr-Dienstauszeichung für 20 Jahre (1. Klasse?) mounted on a single medal bar + its miniature for the civilian taxido

2nd: Preussen, Rettungsmedaille (Koenig) also mounted on a single medal bar + its miniature too!

I am aware of the catalogue prices given by Nimmergut, but how much more would you pay for a medal nicely mounted on single medal bar and as extra a nice and not common miniature?

I offered Eur 80.- for the LW-DA and Eur 110.- for the Rettungsmedaille... was I fair enough? (the seller didn't respond yet... that is not a good sign!).

Here are the pictures:

Well, I find that you dwellers in Euroland often seem to pay ALMOST as much for minis (which we cannot give away, over here! ) as Full Size, so you better increase your offer!

Rick,

Well in that case the price for the Landwehr-DA is ok... for the Rettungsmedaille would be then around Eur 150.-! What do you think?

But it only matters what the SELLER thinks!!!

I think ANY German lifesaving medal is drastically UNDER-valued, and when the Price Bibles finally catch on, the prices will surge upward like so many others have.

Buy now... or regret later!

Claudio, I agree with Rick, the prices for miniatures are crazy if you compare some dealers websites or even ebay.
