This is an attractive - and/or very detailed! - example of the (actually nowadays fairly scarcely encountered!) WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) so-called: 'Demjansk'-campaign-shield and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem issued- albeit I deem simply never worn- nor once tunic-attached-), condition. The (typical magnetic and minimally converse-shaped) campaign-shield - which is executed in greyish-silver-coloured metal (ie.: 'Eisenblech') - comes naturally complete with its metal-based back-plate and retains all its four its originally attached pins ie. prongs in place. The piece also retains its fully preserved (black-coloured) so-called 'backing'-paper (as can be seen on the pictures). The shield - that comes mounted onto its piece of field-grey-woolen cloth - shows some truly minimal aging caused by storage only: some minimal staining is visible and/or present but it still retains extraordinary detail as to be expected. The shield was found at a private-household in Germany and was simply stored as such for decades: it was never before in a collection. It should furthermore be mentioned that these 'Demjansk'-campaign-shields are nowadays hard to come by. Simply a very nice - and naturally original! - example of this collectable and desirable campaign-shield that nowadays is not that often offered for sale: I deem that I have priced this very attractive example accordingly!
