Attractive, 3-pieced WH (Heeres o. KM) medal-bar (ie. 'Ordenspange') showing resp. an: 'EK II. Kl.', a: RAD (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'): 'DA 4. Stufe für Männer' and a: 'Westwall'-medal

The truly attractive - I deem early-war-period- and nicely preserved! - WH (Heeres- o. Kriegsmarine) three-pieced medal-bar (ie. 'Ordenspange') is showing respectively an: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron-cross second class), a: RAD (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'): 'Dienstauszeichnung 4. Stufe für Männer' (as was intended for 4 years loyal-service) and a: 'Deutsches Schutzwall Ehrenzeichen' (or: 'Westall'-medal) all three awards coming in an overall very nice- (and I deem only moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. All three awards are very nicely preserved examples that seem to have never been cleaned nor polished: they come in an equally minimally tarnished- ie. dusty condition and naturally also come mounted onto their period ribbons. The attractive 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron-cross second class) - which is an attractive example that was produced by a by me unidentified the maker (ie. 'Hersteller') - was with certainty never cleaned and has a very nice and/or attractive age-patina: it truly retains a fair bit of its so-called: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or: polished sides) and has a minimally 'darkened tarnish' (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross has a nicely preserved, black-finished (ie. somewhat 'matted'- ie. satin-like) core: it is truly void of any damage or alike. The piece is just a tiny bit dusty and/or stained but was never cleaned nor polished. The RAD (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'): 'Dienstauszeichnung 4. Stufe für Männer' (as was intended for 4 years loyal-service) is an example of the 'light-weight'- (ie. darker-bronze-toned- and/or aluminium- ie. 'Cupal'-based) version and comes in an equally nicely preserved condition. The 'Westwall'-medal is a neat Buntmetall'-based specimen that has an attractive golden-bronze-coloured age-patina (simply caused by decades of storage) and was most certainly never cleaned nor polished and therefore are details and/or finish still very nice and/or crisp. The entire 'Spange' comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin- ie. catch set-up and is nicely 'backed' with a piece of field-grey-coloured wool as is more often seen (as can be seen on the pictures). The medal-bar was recently found at a private-household in Germany and was never before part of a collection. The 'Spange' is most certainly a period-compiled- and/or worn piece and is NOT a post-war compilation or alike: it originated from a private-household and was kept as such for decades. Simply a very attractive - and truly decorative! - three-pieced, WH-Heeres o. Kriegsmarine-related medal-bar- ie. 'Ordenspange' that is in my opinon accordingly priced!
