Superb, bright-silver-toned so-called: 'Polizei-Dienstauszeichnung 3. Stufe' (or: police loyal-service medal 3rd class) that comes mounted onto its period ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') and that comes stored in its scarcely seen, green-coloured etui
This is a very attractive example of a silver-class: 'Polizei-Dienstauszeichnung 3. Stufe' (or: police loyal-service medal third class as was awarded for 8 years of loyal service within the various TR-police-services) and that comes mounted onto its (confectioned) period ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') and that came stored in its original (2-pieced) etui and that comes in an overall very nice- (and I deem only minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The medal truly retains gorgeous details and is just minimally darkened ie. tarnished by age: it retains all of its 'off-factory' polished-sides (ie. 'hochpolierte Kanten'). The medal retains a great age patina overall (it has most certainly never been cleaned nor polished). The award came naturally mounted onto its original, confectioned- (ie. approximately 9 cms. long- and/or: 3,7 cms. wide-sized-) cornflower-blue-coloured ribbon that still retains its copper-toned 'clip' (mounted for easily wearing the piece on a tunic). The scarcely found, typical (darker) greenish-coloured (and carton-based-) 2-pieced etui comes in an overall nicely preserved - albeit clearly issued - condition. It shows a silver-toned (and fully undamaged) 'circle' with the number '8' (as can be seen on the pictures). The etui is totally undamaged but does show some minimal wear, age and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very nicely preserved - and/or complete! - 8-yrs. police loyal-service-medal-set: one of the nicest such third-class Polizei-award-sets I had on offer for quite some time!
