Original German WWII Unissued Crimea Krim Shield Decoration - Krimschild Japanese Edged Weapons receiver end pieceOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is an excellent unissued example with a lovely metal shield attached to field gray wool Heer (Army) cloth backing. The wool is in great shape, with just a bit of fading, and no mothing. The rear paper backing is about 99% complete, and has a great aged look. This example was never fitted to a uniform, but no longer retains the original antiqued brass finish, with no corrosion to the base metal or oxidation.
