A German Second War Blood Order Medal Citation Group.
An excellent quality 2nd model Blood Order, which retains all its original both light and grey patinated finish. Individually awarded number ‘3218’. 800 silver stamped right at the base of the award. A tiny dye flaw is common to all of the late awarded Blood Orders, a minute dot to the lower field within the right hand side arch of the Feldherrenhalle, to the left of the statue’s head can be seen with a magnifying glass. Complete with its correct white, red and black watered silk ribbon, the medal is accompanied by its ultra rare formal presentation award certificate, which is extremely elaborate in its red leather folder with a gilded impression of the Third Reich eagle and swastika to the outside of the folder. The beautiful citation has raised impressions of both sides of the Blood Order either side of the central rectangular section,
excellent condition £3,000-£4,000
