Hi all,
this medal was produced in three versions:
- in blackened iron, for foreign volunteer soldiers (ca. 10,000 awarded)
- in bronze, for foreigners helping Finland during the war (1961 awarded)
- in silver (hallmarked), for special efforts made for help Finland. Awarded oly 42 pieces, and in fact not available in the collector's market
The iron version (is magnetic) was also awarded with swords and clasps, like the "common" Winter War medal.
greetings
