Hello,
Here is an early example of a dak medal with ribbon starting to get fade look.
Am I right in thinking its an original piece ?

Nice original, nice to see the original ribbon which is usually replaced.

Nice piece Daniel! You state this is an early example, why is that? Tombak v Zinc material or something else?
re: early example of Medaille für den Italiensch-Deutschen Feldzug in Afrika.
The later issues were made of zinc with a bronze Finsh I think, it's why many go the dark brown like colour because it fades and looses its coat very easy. This one is not made of zinc and has kept it's original colour and looks similar to known early issue ones so I believe for it to be an early issue.by Glenn66

Here's my example, I guess you would class this as early also?
