Article on the German Afrika Korps Medal

(CS350) A German/Italian Afrika Medal being the early brass type. The award is complete with its original ribbon that has an ink stain to it as can be seen. This also has a pin fixing sewn to it.

(CS396) A Nice Early Issue Italian made Afrika Corps Medal given by the Italians to the German counterparts in the Afrika Corps. This example a very nice bronze striking. Complete with only a tiny piece of ribbon that was glued together. The award was banned in 1944 when Italy defected to the allied cause. It is interesting to know the award in the 57 version was re-instituted. GBP £125.00 (UK Pounds)
