Bob,

Scarce 50 year service medal from the Landesfeuerwehrband Bayern. These heavy medals were issued between 1924 & 1936 (page 235 in the Gert Efler book "Deutsche Feuerwehr Auszeichenungen")& should have a silver mark on one of the arms. They sometimes pop up with busted up enamel which is always a shame to see. The condition of yours would detract a little, I'd say $150 or thereabouts in terms of value. Here's mine.

Billy,

Good job, thanks!
