This an attractive - and I deem just moderately used- and/or worn - example of a three-pieced medal-bar (ie. 'Ordenspange') showing respectively a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse ohne Schwertern' (or: War Merits' Cross second class without swords), an: WH Austrian 'Anschluss'- (ie. occupation-) medal: '1 März 1938' (as was given to all members of the armed forces that participated in the German occupation of Austria, which started on 1 March 1938) and a WH Czech 'Anschluss'- (ie. occupation-) medal: '1 October 1938' (as was given to all members of the armed forces that participated in the German occupation of Czecoslovakia, which started on 1 October 1938) and that come all three period-mounted as a (non-detachable) 'Ordenspange' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit issued- and I deem just moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The KvK is an acttractive, very detailed and/or typical golden-bronze-toned (and I deem 'Buntmetall'-based) specimen that just shows a minimally tarnished ie. stained appearance. It is totally void of any damage or alike (as can be seen on the pictures). Both 'Anschluss'-medals are truly attractive examples having great pronounced detail: truly most of their silver- (ie. golden-) toned finish is still perfectly preserved whereas the medal has an attractive tarnish ie. age-patina without showing any defaults. The 'Spange' just shows some minimal dust acquired over the years: the ribbons show some equal minor usage and/or staining. The 'Spange' has truly very nice detail and is 'backed' with a piece of greyish-green-coloured linnen and comes naturally mounted on its (still functional) pin-ie. catch set-up. Simply an attractive - and desirable! - example of a non-detachable, 3-pieced 'Ordenspange' with an unusally encountered combination that can be mounted on almost any WH-tunic!
