Winterschlacht im Osten 1941/1942 medal produced by Otto Zappe, Gablonz with PKZ-110 ring marking.
The medal remains in mint collectible condition. Only slight silver finish loss is visible on the helmet due to diffusion between the silver coating and zinc base metal, something commonly encountered on wartime zinc awards.
The black finish, eagle, grenade and inscription details remain well preserved. The surface retains a clean overall appearance without harsh cleaning or restoration traces.
An attractive Ostmedaille variant produced by Otto Zappe of Gablonz.
