Reichsnährstandes - Ausstellung Leipzig 1939 - Real ?
Hello Everyone
Came across this medal on offer, have looked through my Niemann & Tieste catalogs, have come across similar medals, but none from Leipzig, is this a fantasy piece? or not. Any information welcome
Regards

Hi Alec, I cannot vow for the authenticity of this event, but this is a quality made example. In other words it does not appear to be a cheap cast repro. The detail on the reverse is outstanding. IMO I think it's a period piece but I could be wrong. I'm sure someone else can give you a definitive answer. If it is a fantasy piece, it was well done.

Hello Jay, Jock,
Thanks for your posts, has chance would have it after posting the thread last night, I went onto a German Military Forum, one hour later found a German collector with the exact same medal with presentation box ( black leather covered, appropriately same size as EK1 box with a silver silhouette of the medal on the top) asking about its value. Seems conclusive - its no fantasy piece.
Best Wishes

I agree with you Nick, the reverse has that nice German peasant, down to earth look to it. Pretty cool piece.
