WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) 'Krim'-campaign-shield (as was produced by a by me unidentified maker)

This is an attractive - and in this 'virtually mint' condition quite scarcely found! - example of a: WH (Heeres ie. Waffen-SS) 'Krim'-campaign-shield as was produced by a (by me) unidentified maker and that comes in a presumably issued- (albeit simply never used- nor worn- ie. still 'virtually mint'-), condition. The shield - that comes mounted onto its original, field-grey-coloured 'backing' - comes in a truly wonderful condition and was with certainty never used- nor tunic-mounted. It comes naturally complete with its metal-based back-plate and has all its four prongs in place: moreover, does it still retain its (typical) protective, black-coloured- and/or paper- (ie. carton-) based backing attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The shield - which is minimally converse-shaped as more often - retains almost all of its original, neatly golden-bronze-coloured finish ie. golden-bronze-like appearance (all its period 'Brennlack' is still present!) and was never cleaned nor polished: it does show some minimal staining caused by decades of storage only. Simply a very attractive and desirable 'Heeres ie. Waffen-SS'-pattern example that will be very hard to upgrade. It should be noted that these 'almost minty' examples are very hard to come by: it will be very diffucult to upgrade this totally untouched specimen!
