German Medals good or bad?

[Nordland/Danmark]

I was just looking on a home page that sell's medals and found a EK1 totaly looked like this one I got, then I though I was saved and my EK1 was OK! but then I found another one one he's site when I scrolled down and it was also a maker marked 65 but it looked defrind the 1939 was printed whit more fat numbers and the pin was the same but it was longer down, the tip of the pin was stikking down from the bottom of the cross! hope you guys understand what I meen, ( you can see the tip from the front of the badge) so whit on is the real deal and whit is not!!

Hi Nordland


The Eisernes Kreuz I. Klasse is a original and nice looking example. I'am still not convinced on the Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz though. I will need good detailed pictures of the hinge and catch and of the area around the swords...

I had a question yesterday about the technical terms of medals and other items:
is there a treath that explains every single part, like "hinge", "catch" and also about the figures on the front side.
An "helmet" and a "sword" will be recognized by the most of us but what is the exact name for the leave crown forming the edge of the Verwundetenabzeichen?

Hi Stuka f


Red is the 'hinge'.
Yellow is the 'catch'.

There you go ! I tought the "hinge " was the red part including the needle!
Wouldnt it be good to open a treath, on thise matter? and show every detail of an item (medal, sword, cap etc...)
