    In this article there is about the function what was held in Tallinn 1944 and where SS Obergruppenführer Litzmann was talking about the fight against Bolshevism. Regarding his order, this Seton/medal was instituted to recommend some (civilian) leaders. On his speech there was mentioned only county Petseri mayor Mr. Keerdoja and county Võrnu mayor Mr. Hansen who got it because good leadership.
    As far I know this medal is extremely rare and one came on sale in States? I know only two others in the collections but can be few more around.

      Thank you Noor!!

      Do you have any further knowledge of the one that came for sale in the states that you mention, or the two others you are aware of? I am in possession of one such medal, and it's been an extreme challenge to obtain information on it.

      By an odd twist of fate I made contact with a fellow in Estonia on an unrelated topic, and he just happened to have this article/scan on his computer!

      Do you have any idea what the value of this might be?

      Many thanks and best regards,
      Cheers!

        Here are rather crappy scans obverse and reverse, and a larger (photo) of the front (sorry I don't have one of reverse). As you can see the scanner sees the reflective surface much differently in this case.

        I am keenly interested to know any more information if anyone has any to offer.
        If anyone can provide an English translation of the full text of the article above, this would be awesome.

        Thanks in advance for any feedback!!!

        Cheers all,
