I've seen so many medals "damaged by bullets and shrapnel" that it makes you think all the Germans did was doing target practice at them. Rolleyes

Yes!! There was a horribly damaged (ground-dug?) OG3 on eBay some time ago, and it sold for more than the price of a normal, intact piece. It seems this is becoming a whole new industry. If #9447 would show up on eBay it would sell for hundreds of $.
