    This might be better in the militaria section, what are the dimensions of it ? Also what does it say around the rim ? It is hard to make out in those pics.

    The Medallion was awarded by Georing to those for special achievement in the field of air technology,it should measure 75mm and had a silver wash,saw one for sale around the 100 sterling mark not so long ago,becoming quite scarce nowadays

    Detailed photos of the surface would be useful. It can show up any casting marks of reproductions such as tiny bubbles and holes.
