Medal for Combat Service, Type 2, Variation 3, #3019660,
circa 1946-47.
Silver, lacquer, 32.1 mm wide. Features U-shaped eyelet. The
letters are covered with red lacquer, same as WW2 versions -
as opposed to the more durable "hot baked" enamel on the
later issues of the same medal.
In very fine to excellent condition. The red lacquer is
preserved far better than on an average example from the
period. There is only a single tiny repair to the second
letter "C" in approximately its 5 to 8 o'clock segment; the
rest of the lacquer in the letters is completely intact.
There some minor dings, mostly to the raised edge but no
significant overall wear; the details of the artwork and
lettering a very well-preserved and crisp. The medal comes
on original, early post war suspension, a two-layer model in
steel with integral catch for the pin. The ribbon is old but
nicely preserved and attractive, shows only minor wear to
the edges. The connecting link has been cut but it is of the
period.
