An excellent and well-preserved original Treudienst-Ehrenzeichen 2nd Class (25 Years Faithful Service Decoration), instituted in 1938 and awarded for long and loyal civil or state service. This example represents the silvered grade, featuring a finely detailed cross with an applied wreath and central black enameled swastika, suspended from its original blue ribbon.The decoration remains in outstanding condition, retaining sharp detail and an attractive original finish throughout. The original ribbon is fully intact, complete with its period pin-back suspension on the reverse, exactly as worn. The overall presentation is clean and untouched, making it a highly desirable example for collectors.Awarded to long-serving civil servants, municipal officials, and state employees, this decoration is a classic representation of Third Reich long-service awards. Increasingly difficult to find in such excellent condition, this is a strong and authentic piece that would make a fine addition to any German awards collection.
