Hi, Monster !

These are not worth a great deal - even less incomplete,
and less desireable to collectors in that state.

It may be worth $30 to $50, I'd guess.

Unfortunately I would doubt that you would even get that much for it without a ribbon.

If you have an interest in learning about and collecting militaria, we would love to welcome you as a new member of the forum!

Hello and welcome to the forum.
The value are not big for a medal like that and not without the ribbon and ring.
If I were you, I would keep this medal in memory of your grand father.
This is much more worth than the few dollars you will get.

Just my opinion.

I completely agree with Sonny. As I mentioned in your other post, the value is very little for a broken and common award and you will be lucky to find a buyer. I didn't realise it was part of your Grandfathers belongings so for me that would mean far more than the few measly bucks you might get for it.
Keep it for your Grandfather.
