Buy these medals for $8 each ($10 for the pewter railroad plate) plus approximately actual postage. To purchase send me e-mail. I can accept PayPal payments whether funded by your bank account or your credit card. It is my habit to spend a few days each week at my cabin, which is a computer-free zone, but I will answer you immediately when I'm back home.
During my trips to Switzerland in October 2004 and 2005 I only found a dozen new medals. 2006 was even worse -- I brought back only one medal and the railroad plate. They are included below. Sorry the selection is limited.
It's too much work to list these little things individually on ebay, but you can check my feedback on ebay to see if I can be trusted. My ebay userid is MarushoLilac. And I'm in the phone book in Arlington, Virginia.
You will find a few other types of medals in here - Volksmarsch, hiking, sporting day. It's up to you to translate the inscriptions and decide what you are looking at.
The medals and coasters were scanned at 75dpi, so they should appear about 104% actual size on your monitor.
It is my intention to update this site after every sale. It was last updated December 22, 2006. Thanks for looking.
