I recently purchased these two medals and would like to know if they're okay and a little more about their award numbers and criteria. First up is a Schwarzburg-Rudolfstadt medal, I am not sure whether is actual Silver or bronze with a silver wash. The date is worn, the medal weighs approximately 25grms.

I don't have the numbers on these but both awards look fine. The Schwartzburg medal looks like a midwar type in bronze with silver wash. Later versions were zinc. Early versions silver. The Sachsen-Meiningen war service medal looks fine as well and looks to be a poorly repaired earlier example in bronze. Original ribbons on either of these awards are scarce.
Below are a couple of mounted examples of NCO zinc'ers. SteveComment
