Medal for Combat Merit #129264
Made of solid silver and red lacquer. Measures 32.26 mm in diameter and 2.87 mm in thickness. The height of the medal is 36.48 mm including the eyelet and it weighs 22.8 grams without its suspension. This piece was originally awarded on a rectangular suspension which was replaced by a pentagon shaped one according to new 1943 regulations on wearing Soviet awards.
In nice , above average condition with medium wear to the higher laying parts and a fair amount of details still visible. There are several small dings and scratches and over half of the original red lacquer is still present. Its connection ring has not been cut and the medal comes with an early double layer steel suspension.
Probably awarded during the second half of 1942 so with excellent research potential!
