Eagle order Medal of Merit in Bronze 2nd pattern

[LES Y]

Hi guys,

Opinions please on this Eagle order before I place it on Estand.
I am sure it's original but would like to make sure.
The ring is stamped 30 and the ribbon appears original with the pin on the rear.

I like it....I have a silver one...no pin though....and no maker mark....hard to find opinions on them since no one seems to have them.
What did it run approx? if i can ask....got mine many yrs ago for under hundred...must have been early 80's

under hundred? man i'd buy it immediatly.


Think these do a few hundreds now, right?


im no expert on these but it looks good.

Eagle order Medal of Merit in Bronze

A well respected dealer recently offered me $500 in trade for this packeted example. I decided I'd keep it for a while. I think this type is scarcer than those from the "30" Wien mint. Interesting that the original packet mark was Berlin, then changed to Wien - a little swapping between makers perhaps to fill orders?
