Forty Years Faithful Service Medal

Forty Years Faithful Service Medal (Treudienst Ehrenzeichen 1. Stufe). On 30 January 1938, Hitler instituted the Faithful Service Decoration, in three classes. This was in recognition of long serving civil servants, and public works personnel. The medal is complete with its original confectioned blue ribbon. The medal is in very good condition, showing stunning details. Nice original medal.
