Thank you Michael Xenikakis.

@ Adrian
As far as I know, there are 54 manufacturers of Ostmedaillen have been found in bags. So there are definitely 54 known manufacturers.

Greetings!

I would like to show you some of my cabinet. Although not finished yet and it is still missing some, but I wanted to show times.
Opinions are welcome

Looking good! I hope you can post your Luftwaffe badge too when you get the chance?

You've got some nice pieces there, I like the little display-stands for your medals as well...
cheers, Glenn

Hello friends,

I would like to show you 2 new pieces. These are both from the manufacturer 30, actually, I would leave it in this condition, these pieces because they are actually still quite common to find. But then I saw that both pieces are marked with 30 and that is very rare to find.
Plus a bag in bad condition, but also rare to find.

That's a nice pair of medals Mike. I've never seen a '30' stamp on a ribbon ring before. However, are you absolutely sure it's not an '80'?

Hi Adrian,

I'm in about 5 hours at home. Then I make two new photos and will highlight how you can recognize the places that these pieces are 30s.
When I got these two pieces, I was happy as a little kid

Hmm.

Not sure I've seen that particular feature on these medals........

Joking aside, thank you for posting these comparison pictures Mike, very useful and good to see some more differences in the finer details between makers of this award.
