    Spanish Division Medal on Estand?

    Hi guys!
    I just listed this Spanish Division Medal on Estand and a member PM'ed me and said the ribbon maybe post-war. I posted it once before and it was deemed war time. But I know less than -0- about these.
    All comments & thoughts appreciated!

      This is the german issue, not the one made in Spain as replacement medal.
      Before talking about the award in itself ... Could you tell us what kind of metal is the medal made please?
      About the ribbon... could that member explain why is he saying this is a post war copy? There is at least two war time german maker for this ribbon and, by these pics, I´d say this one looks quite similar to the work of one of them.

        Thank you so very much Greg! I had posted this before and it was given many by several members. The fellow just said it maybe a postwar ribbon and I am not an expert and only want to sell authentic items.
        The metal I think maybe zinc or ?? as it is non-metallic but it still retains some of the gold wash, but much of it looks absorbed by the metal.
        Thank you again!

            Greg, the member who had questions about the band has PM'ed me and is OK with it now.
            Thanks for the help!

              Well... I´d like to know the reason of the suspiction. This is a hobby to learn something everyday.
