Medal-set: 'KvK II. Klasse mit Schwertern' being a clearly maker- (ie. '101'-) marked- (and/or 'Buntmetall'-based) specimen that came together with its original, minimally confectioned ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt')

This is an attractive - and nicely preserved albeit clearly issued and I deem just moderately used! - medal-set: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: War Merits' Cross second class with swords) being a clearly maker- (ie. '101'-) marked- (and/or 'Buntmetall'-based) specimen that came together with its original, minimally-confectioned and folded ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. I deem issued- and/or hardly worn-), condition. The specimen is executed in typical, darker-golden-bronze-toned 'Buntmetall'-based metal and retains an attractive and just minimally 'tarnished' age-patina and has never been cleaned nor polished and therefore are details and/or finish still very nice and/or crisp. The piece is stamped with the makers'-designation: '101' in its ring and is thus a piece that was produced by the maker (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Rudolf Tahm' as was based in the town of Gablonz. Truly all of its (as stated above minimally 'tarnished') darker-toned, golden-bronze-coloured finish has been very nicely preserved, giving the medal a very nice and/or detailed appearance. The piece was never cleaned nor polished and comes as found. Simply an attractive, maker-marked 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' that will be hard to be upgraded!
