Hello everyone, I picked this up today at a flea-market, it's a war merit medal I believe for civillians. However, if I'm not mistaken it's ribbon is all wrong? Isn't this a ribbon for annexation of Sudentenland? Thanks, Greg

The Medal is the "Kriegsverdienstmedaille" (War Merit Medal), the ribbon is for the Commemorative Medal of 1 October 1938 (Sudetenlandmedaille / Medaille zum anschluss Sudetenland).

That's what I thought, thanks for the quick reply. Do you think they are both authentic, and the seller just mixed and matched what he had available? These are not commonly faked are they? Greg
