Hi, its a WW2 marked 24. Cant tell for sure if genuine from those shadowy pics, looks promising though, shame there isnt a pic of the obverse
I dont think you will ever know if it came from Kursk!

I think you could be lucky there, fare enough it isn’t in the best of condition. I might have been tempted myself if i had seen it. You might be the only bidder because it isn’t listed in the normal listing area for that sort of thing. I hate ebayers that are private you cant see what they have sold before.
Best of luck

I usually stay away from sellers with private listings and hidden feedback.... what kind of honest seller could possibly benefit from such conduct? Not saying that all private listings are bad, I just tend to be very weary of them... that's all. Not a collector of medals so I won't be commenting on the actual item in question... good luck!

You need to take a closer look Rodder's. He appears to sell a lot of old coins and odd bits of jewelery. I'm thinking M.D. enthusiast.
