Gentlemen,
I would like to open new discussion about “buntmetall” Ostfront medals. Did they exist?
Periodically we all can see the forum treads, where some forum colleagues calling nice preserve Ost medals as “early buntmetall examples”. Here for example http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...=681917&page=3
IMO this is not correct, they all were made from zinc with 4 different types of finishing.
- 1st type. Galvanic silvering with application of a layer of copper.
