    Prague - German/Italian Africa Campaign - Eastern Peoples

    Hello all,

    I have a few medals that I am trying to ID and admittedly, these are definitely not my forte

    1) 1st Oktober 1938 with Prague Bar ( I think I can see the H.C. initials on the bar)
    2) German/Italian Africa Campaign Medal (it looks there is some writing on the back bottom edge and back side edge, any ideas?)
    3) Lastly, it looks like a salty Eastern People's medal

    Any and all opinions are welcome!

    Thanks!
    Chad

        Hi Chad all three look ok to me, I am a bit hesitant with the africa medal, as the reverse looks alittle strange in the detail but that could be just the pictures. A closer look at the writing and rim would help. The writing on the bottom is De Marchis which I believe was the designer (excuse the spelling as going off the top of my head) and the side is Lorrioli milano. The scence depicts two gladiators Italy and Germany dragging a croc ( England) into the fighting arena. Regards

          yeah, they look good, just look at the side of italy afrika piece to make sure it does not have a casting seam, some of the cast gray ones look good front and back

                Hi, guys!
                I don't understand, how on photos of bad quality it is possible to state an estimation?

                Best regards, Vladimir.

                    Hi Vladimir there are varying qualities in the prague bar some better detailed than others, admittedly better pictures would help and may show the award in different light but going off those rightly or wrongly it still looks ok to me and not like the fakes in the market at the moment. Yours is a very nice bar but not all were as well detailed as the one you show, Regards

                      Hi, mrg!
                      I already had purchase experience on poor-quality photos.

                          I don't like on the shown Prague Bar the led round places. It would be desirable to see a revers.

                            Hi Maybe Chad could post better and clearer pics.

                              I couldn't agree more guys, buying off of iffy pics is tough. If I do end up acquiring these, or am able to post better pictures, I will definitely be sure to do so.

                              Thanks for everyone's help in the meantime
