I think, everybody knows the War Commemorative Medal of the German Reichskriegerbund, later renamed to NS-Reichskriegerbund.
On June 19, 1921 the Reichskriegerbund issued - the medal was issued, not awarded - a war commemorative medal to all veterans, who had participated the 1st World War. Soon the veterans like to get a miniature of the medal and in april 1922 the Reichskriegerbund could deliver the first miniatures to their members.
And here a mistake happend to fabrication. The original text written on the medal shows: "Aufrecht und stolz gehen wir aus dem Kampfe" (straight and proudly we are leaving the fighting fields) and mostly all of the miniatures shows this text also.
BUT there are some miniatures showing "Aufrecht und froh gehen wir aus dem Kampfe" (straight an happy we are leaving...). These miniatures are once in a blue moon.
Here i show you both miniatures:
