Re: 2nd class ostvolk in bronze with swords (flat reverse and no rope around the flower). wartime,57 or just a repro?
The medal itself looks fine and I believe these "no rope" versions are a makers variation.
Cheers, Ade.

Adrians right. The medal is a good one. There is much discussion over these medals. It is said that the "ropeless" medals were an early, 1st pattern, short run issue.
I dont believe there actually was a 57 version of this.

You're right Nick. No swastika - no need for a re-issue.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

I too have one of these variations. Nothing wrong with yours.
