SS 12 Year Long Service Medal #12884

SS 12-Year Long Service SILVER Cross Medal.  This is a very rare and hard to find medal. It has the sigrunes in a wreath on the front and the words: FUR TREUE DIENSTE IN DER SS on the back. The suspension teardrop solid ring holds the medal. Size: 1-1/2 inch diameter and 3-3/4 long overall. Ribbon lacks sigrunes, so perhaps this medal came off a salesman example , as it appears original to medal. This medal came to me along with other recently listed high end medals out of an old long time collection.Dietrich Maerz also looked at this medal and felt it to be real, but does not provide LOA on SS medals. Jason Burmeister also gave it a thumbs up.(SS 12 Year Long Service Medal)German Militaria
