WH Occupation of Austria Medal with Ribbon

Anschluss Medal with Ribbon – 13. März 1938

This is a genuine example of the 1938 Anschluss Medal, officially titled “Medaille zur Erinnerung an den 13. März 1938”, awarded to German military and civilian personnel involved in the annexation of Austria into the Third Reich.

The reverse reads: “13. März 1938”, the date of the Anschluss.

This piece includes the original tri-fold red ribbon with white and black edges, showing wear consistent with age but still intact.
