Imperial Regimental Jubilee Medals and Third Reich Tinnies of Same

[Rick Research]

Here is a "watch fob" type 100th anniversary medal for the Bavarian 14th Infantry Regiment, with a 125th anniversary tinnie for the same unit. The original owner's black wound badge is included for size comparison.

And the reverses. The 1914 medal is made out of German silver alloy and is quite thick and heavy. The 1939 tinnie is gold painted aluminum, made by "C. Balmberger, Nürnberg."

Groovy

Now that is a great example of a crossover tinny.
