Hi.Now I have a pictures through a magnifying glass and cheap camera can shoot fine pictures too..I think
In my opinion the "6" is a buntmetal and the "19" is zinc.True or not?

The "19" Weidmann's a good zinker. A late war type. Stewy

I think they're both zinc.

[Stewy S]

That was my thought too Ade,due to the "bubbling" which is a zinc trait. Zimmermann zinc awards are not the best quality IMO,in general. I think the suspension ring was buntmetal on them. Stewy

I completely agree with that Stewy!

[don_kihotis7]

I don't think that these medals were ever made from buntmetal right? At least i have only seen them in zinc.

Yes, I think all zinc manufacture also. Thats why it's so hard to find mint examples. Here's my nicest one.

[Woolgar]

Wow, that is special Glenn
