Description
Medal for the Defense of Leningrad ‘Polished Sky’
Medal for the Defense of Leningrad; made of heavy gold plated brass. Measures 32.17 mm in width, 37.63 mm in height, including the eyelet and weighs 17.6 gram.
This medal is in excellent condition with perfect details and most gold plating still present. The medal shows several small dings and contact marks on both sides but none distracting from the overall appeal of the medal. The double layer suspension is time period to the medal.
Special care was taken in producing these ‘proof coinage’ medals, featuring a polished sky. Only a small fraction of the Defense of Leningrad medals fall into this sub-variation.
