    This is not my expertise, but I found this with a couple other medals from an estate sale. Any thoughts? Marked L/18 on back

    I think it may go nice with my Kriegsmarine Mod 34 Mauser

    What are these made of? Seems heavy!

    OK...How do I post an attachment

                      I have to say this one raises some immediate questions for me as to whether it's a casting. Hardware looks wrong, as does the maker mark. I think some better, less "flashy" pics are required.

                      Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

                      If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

                          Well my Mayer is an early one in tombak and have a total different design.
                          The late Mayer L/18 in zink i have only seen this with broad pin and with the L/18 stamp on the pin.
                          I dont know if there are any variation on this?

                          Bob just send me the pictures and i post them as before.

                            Bob !

                            If you want to post pictures you have to be a Accociation Member.
                            It dont cost much and its worth it.

                              Hi better pics are really needed on this one, going off those pics this award raises some concerns for me, finish looks alittle sparkly (is that a word ) and is something you see on fakes, unless its the flash, eagle does not look like a mayer (pics?) reverse set up not correct. It has to be said that not all L18 had the mm on the pin, although in my opinion that does not look correct either. Just my thoughts, better pics would definately help thou. Not one for me at the minute.
