Medal for the Capture of Koenigsberg, Variation 2, late 1940s - early 50s.
In brass; 32.2 mm wide; weighs 17.1 g not including the suspension and connecting link. Single-piece construction; sub-variation featuring a U-shaped eyelet.
In excellent condition. The medallion is free of significant wear, having only some minuscule dings that are mostly unnoticeable to the naked eye. The details are perfect and exceptionally crisp. Some of the original "gilt" mint luster is present in recessed areas around the lettering, especially on the obverse. The toning to the brass is even and very attractive; there are no blemishes or oxidation spots.
Comes on original period suspension in brass with a new ribbon. The connecting link appears to be of the period. Overall, a very attractive example of the Variation 2 Koenigsberg medal.
