German Hungarian medal

[Tango]

Hello Gents just a quick question I have found this rather cheap medal on Fleabay & thought it would look good on my WW1 shelf. Now could anybody tell anything about this medal??...Price,real deal, & who why & when??.. Thank you ever so much for your time . Cheers Terry.

This one is pretty self-explanatory! A commemorative medal of an Austro-Hungarian veteran of WWI. "Pro Deo Et Patria" basically means "For God and the Fatherland". The triangular ribbon folding is usually recognized as Austrian, but not always, of course. You see these fairly often, so the values are generally not too high. Anywhere from $35-70 bucks or so-depending on condition. Still a nice medal!
