    Stalingrad Medal

    Hey guys! I would like to hear your opinions on this stalingrad veteran Medal. Is it genuine?





    (de strap/ribbon is fake I guess, condition far too good?)


    Hope you can help me out with authenticity and worth?

    Greets, Luuk!

    Much too low quality to be original...... IMO junk!

        I agree, medal is a cast fake and ribbon is a copy too.

        My books:


        - THE WEHRPAß & SOLDBUCH OF THE WH
        - THE SS TK RING
        - THE ITALIAN-GERMAN MEDAL
        - THE ANTI PARTISAN BADGE
        - THE AWARDS OF THE LW

        and more!

            I don't think there was a Stalingrad medal.

            Hmmm, maybe I should clarify that statement... there is no Stalingrad medal

            Cheers.

                There where plans to make a Stalingrad medal to honor the men of 6. armee. First prototype was made by E. Eigener but rejected (a dead german soldier was on this medal). The second design, made by E. Eigener, was submitted by General Friedrich Paulus but due the loss/surrender from the German Army the shield was never in production.

                The designer E. Eigener has been killed in Stalingrad.

                So there was never a Stalingrad Medal
