Scarce medal 'Deutsche Volkspflege für Frauen an Bandschleife', that comes on its original mounted ribbon - nice, slightly used ie. almost mint condition!

This is a very nice example of the (scarce!) medal for 'Deutsche 'Deutsche Volkspflege für Frauen an Bandschleife' (civil service medal for women on ribbon bow) that comes mounted on its original folded ribbon as found, in nice, only slightly used (IMO almost mint!) condition. The ribbon is bright-red coloured and has originally been attached to the medal by a medal-maker or distributor (it still retains its functional, chromed clip & catch). There is one small stain visible on the ribbon, however, IMO not that shocking. The medal itself has a nice age-patina: as often with these 'Feinzink' medals is the piece somewhat tarnished and greyish in colour (it is also a tiny bit dirty but was never cleaned). The details on the piece, however, are truly stunning. Of interest is the fact that this piece came together with its accompanying (rare!) 'Halbminiatur', which I offer under number 19673. A nice - and actually quite scarce - 'Volkspflege' medal!
