Our Spange is priced right considering overall condition and rarity.

Rare Cholm 1942 Campaign Shield
SOLD!Here’s a real nice 100% original Cholm 1942 Shield with a very rare 2-pin configuration on the reverse.

Scarce 1942 Cholm Shield with Wool Backing & Original Paper
SOLD!Here we have a salty Cholm shield (the large “M” version) with a nice SS-cloth wool backing and backing paper. A little rust doesn’t dismiss the fact that this example has a ton of potential. One of the more rare version, the large “M” design doesn’t seem to come around very often…

Panzer Assault (Tank) Badge in Silver for 25 Engagements
SOLD!These are some of the most attractive of all the German WW2 medals in our opinion. The Silver Grade Panzer Assault Badge (also referred to as a “Tank Badge”) for 25 engagements. Typically these are found with most (if not all) of the silver wash gone to time. Not in this case!
