Ostfront Medal - question

[Towarish]

Hello Philipp!
If it's not too much trouble, would you mind adding the PKZ nr of the ones you know to have produced maker marked medals?
I don't know if there is one yet.

Hello Thomas,
I will send you a PM with the list I've made.
If anyone else is interested in this subject, just let me know.

Cheers,
Philipp

i'm surprised with the 00, i think maybe it's 88 or 99..

Folks,

as mentioned before, I took some more pictures.

First, the complete set back & front:

[Kev G]

Then, the maker marks I could identify ...

No. 19 and No. 100

[Kev G]

No. 61 and No. 77

[Kev G]

No. 60 and the one I couldn't clearly read ... maybe the pro's can help here!

Thanks ...

Further to this, I also got two Ostfront stickpins, one with L/16 makermark.

I would appreciate any additional information about the rarity of makers, maybe also about the stickpins, you could enlighten me with.

Thanks for your support!

Very nice stickpins.

I still say the sloppy marked piece is a 88 - the color of the Bandring is typical for a Redo made piece.

Anyhow, would you mind to post the whole medal (front and backside)?

For the rarity of the medals you have posted...well those makers can be found quite often.

Looking forward to hearing from you

Cheers,
Philipp

A special version of this medal was made in Spain after the war for the spanish volunteers in Russia (Blue Division). This version "made in Spain" is rarer than the german one. The medal was made in two pieces. In the photo an example of the medal and the mini of my collection.

Interesting, any chance for closeups of both the medal and the mini?

Hi Guys,

thanks for the input about the sloppy redo maker

As requested, here are the pictures from this medal front and back. Also, I thought I'll attach the detail shots of the stickpins front.

I also would be interested in close-ups made in Spain war ... thanks in advance.

[Kev G]

Stickpins for your review ...

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the photos.

It's a Redo for sure.

I've enclosed a photo of my 88 made Ostmedaille.
