Classified as non portable awards. Nice examples. Are the reverses inscribed?
Also referred to as table medals.

Thanks Joe!

Do you know what these ones are called, specifically?
Have a few more "mystery medals" yet tht you commented on in other thread, I haven't forgotten.
Will be photographing a bunch over next few days, will post soon...

Thanks,

The silver one looks like the horse depicted on the Dortmund tinnies,perhaps has something to do with that City.

On the first I can only make out Osterreich and bund along the edge. Not sure what the rest is. May have to see the reverse of both to see what they were given for. Many table medals could be given for differing organizations, sports, shooting, etc.
The second has emblems for both sports and shooting.
Somewhere on here is a thread with an example of the second. Must find it.
