Hi Joe,

Thank you for your comments.

No, only the usual four grades (bronze silver gold & gold with leaves). If you are referring to the pieces in the above picture, they are from two different years. Bronze, silver & gold for 1943 (the silver is heavily patinated) & silver & gold with oakleaves for 1944.

Landeck basically used the same design for both '43 & '44. The only difference, apart from the year on them, was that the wreath on the '43 was enamelled & painted on the '44. Here is a pic, the gold on the '43 has faded & I suspect that the '44 has been repainted post war.

Cheers
Don
