Very fine to excellent condition. There is a tiny surface flake to the tip of the upper left arm, almost unnoticeable to the naked eye. All other areas have only occasional microscopic contact marks; the enamel retains all of its beautiful tone, translucency and luster. The center medallion is in near mint condition, showing practically no wear; its details are exceptionally crisp. Nice untouched silver patina to the reverse. The screw post is of full length, 11 mm long; it comes with a screw plate of WW2 period which fits the screw perfectly.
