Hello Everyone,
I have compaired this luft. 1st class to a couple of known originals (photos) that I have. Overall my first impression was that I thought it looked good. Then I noticed a couple of things that caused some concern. These are in comparison with known good versions of this medal-
#1) The second "E" in Verdienste looks too thick
#2) The "F" and second "T" in Luftschutz look too thick as well
#3) The "C" in luftschutz is a different style
#4) There appears to be excess material on the 3 and 6 o'clock arms, as noticed on the rear of the medal.
Am I being too nit picky or are these valid concerns. Any and all help/opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely Andy B.
