CAMPAIGNSHIELDS #47811 Kuban Shield

This Kuban shield is the brass type and the reverse backing has all gone to time. The shield shows some age and some minor wear but still would make a good display example.

The badge features a German eagle with outstretched wings clutching a laurel wreath with a swastika. On each side of the wreath are the numbers 19 and 43. Directly below the eagle is the word KUBAN in capital letters.

Below this name is a stylized map of the Kuban region, with a line representing the defensive position that the men fought to preserve with the location of the bridgeheads - KRYMSKAJA, LAGUNEN, and NOWOROSSIJSK.

Good. $65.00

CAMPAIGNSHIELDS #47328 Krim Campaign Shield

This campaign shield is a fine bronze over steel base. The majority of the bronze is still intact with some wear to the high points.

It is headed by the German eagle clutching a laurel wreath surrounding a swastika, flanked by the dates 1941 and 1942. This sits on a backdrop of the Crimean peninsula, bearing the word KRIM.

The badge is mounted on army green wool in good condition and on the reverse the metal backing with prongs is intact.

A nice example here.
