    Ost Medals from a bundle

    Hello everyone,

    I picked these up today from the son of a veteran. He told me his father had taped a bundle of medals together and brought them home after the war. He said he cut the tape open, they were all the same and he would part with eight. I thought I would be getting 8 identical medals from the same maker, but it turns out I have 5 different makers!

    All of the medals are marked. All but 2 came in issue envelopes. All are zink and have not been unwrapped since they were manufactured. I will post more photos upon your request once my camera battery recharges.

    I placed the maker numbers on the photo.

    Cheers,
    Henry

                  They in amazing shape. Imagine what all the zinc badges would look like if they had been stored like these

                      Thank you all for the kind words. It is defiantly an instant Ost medal collection! I was very happy with the conditions of the awards. It is hard to find zink medals in such great shape. Now I am wondering if the seller has any more makers

                              i think the ostfront medal is probably the best designed of any third reich medal, simple , striking and unlike any other! ernst kraus did good!!
