The '36/37 silver cross is very attractive. I assume it's plain on the reverse exept for the silver mark? Cheers Don "Much that once was, is lost, for none now live who remember it" Galadriel, LotR.

The Gold medal is cased and is made by Carl Poellath.I believe it to be an award for a dog competition (dashhound) given by the Reichsbund Deutsche J�gerschaft.Probably best in class or something like that.
