My other medal i will show tonight is this Verdienstmedaille der DDR. Made some time in the 60s. I love the presentation of this medal in this quality case compared to the long service medal in the plastic case. Reminds me of the Third reich KVK 1 boxes. The enamel on the medal is quite pretty. The case for the medal needed a good clean with a lint roller when i got it. Must of been in storage for years.
There doesn’t seem to be a series for this medal. Or maybe I haven’t looked hard enough. There is version made in the 70s and 80s but I presume to a lower quality.
Enjoy the photos.
