Moderately used, two-pieced medal-bar (ie.: 'Orden- o. Doppelspange') resp. showing a: 'KvK 2. Klasse mit Schw.' and a WH Czech 'Anschluss'-medal: '1. Oktober 1938'

This is a decorative - and actually not that easily found! - example of a two-pieced, medal-bar (ie. 'Orden- o. Doppelspange') being of the 'non-detachable'-pattern, respectively showing a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: War Merits' Cross second class with swords) and a so-called: WH Austrian 'Anschluss'- (ie. occupation-) medal: '1. Oktober 1938' as was given to all members of the armed forces that participated in the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, which started on 13 October 1938) being both minimally used examples, both awards coming in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used and/or worn-), condition. Both awards are nicely preserved examples that seem to have never been cleaned nor polished: both come in an equally minimally tarnished- (ie. dusty) condition and naturally also come mounted onto their period ribbons. The KvK (that comes mounted onto its truly orange-red-coloured ribbon!) is an acttractive, very detailed and/or typical golden-bronze-toned (and I deem 'Buntmetall'-based) specimen that just shows a minimally tarnished ie. stained appearance. It is totally void of any damage or alike (as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Anschluss'-medal retains most of its original, bright-golden-bronze-toned finish: it is also a tiny bit dirty ie. tarnished, simply caused by minimal wear and/or decades of storage (as can be noticed on the pictures). The 'Spange' comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin- (ie. catch-) set-up and is nicely 'backed' with a piece of bluish-grey-coloured (smooth-type) wool as is more often seen (as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' is most certainly a period-compiled- and/or worn piece and is NOT a post-war compilation or alike. Simply an attractive - and decorative! - 2-pieced, medal-bar- (ie. 'Doppelspange') that is in my opinion accordingly priced!
