Original German WWII Commemorative Medal Of 13 March 1938- The Commemorative Medal of 13 March 1938, established on the historic date of March 13th, 1938, serves as a poignant memento of the German occupation of Austria and its subsequent annexation into the German Reich. This medal was bestowed upon individuals who played instrumental roles in facilitating Austria's integration into the Reich, including Austrian Nazis and their supporters. Additionally, it honored the widows of Austrian Nazis who had either perished during the struggle for Anschluss or had been executed.
The obverse of the medal features a powerful depiction: two nude figures, one bearing the banner of the free proletarian Reich, while the other, with chains broken from his hands, strides triumphantly atop the pedestal of freedom towards a promising future. The symbolism encapsulates the transformative events of that period. This medal is accompanied by its original ribbon and is presented in excellent condition.
