    Opinions on this NSDAP 25 year medal

    Hi Guys,
    I was hoping to get some opinions on this 25 year NSDAP medal. To me, the back looks ok, but the eagle (and swastika) seem kind of crude. Thanks in advance for all comments.

    Sincerely Andy B.

      Sorry for the size of the pics, they were too large (initially) so I have been resizing them. I can send larger views to anyone if it will help with their opinion.

        That's a strange looking bird.

        You don't have to resize them that small.

          Hi Curt , Thanks for the reply. I tried to change the size (decreasing by 10% each time) and the two pics was the best I could do. Ironically, I tried to send a pic of the back (same size as the front pic) and it listed as too large (so I had to down size again). So, who knows.
          Anyway, I was really hoping to get some opinions....come on guys, atleast point me in the direction of a good one (so I can check myself).

            I asked a similar question to your self a few months ago and received a muted
            response also, these awards are extremely rare and very few members have one
            so you may have to use your own judgement or wait and see if another one
            turns up.
            good luck in your search.
            my quest continues.
            regards
            Shaun

                Thanks Shaun. I guess its a dead end street. I found 2 for sale at Ruptured Duck, and the eagle looks different. So I guess my opinion is that its no good.

                  Expect to spend several thousand $'s for a real one.

                    Yeah, I saw them for a hair over $4000. Thanks for the additional pics Curt.

                      The Eagle should be the same on the 10,15 & 25yr Medals. The one Bill Shea has looks correct to me.

                        Hi CurtD
                        Just looking at the lettering on your award and its positioning makes me have doubts.
                        For such a prestiguous award I would also expect to see a lot more detail on the obverse. Your award seems roughly made.
                        Remembering this was to be awarded to the longest serving Nazi's I don't think it hits the mark.
                        Thats just my opinion though.
                        Regards
                        Shaun
