Hi, they are some nice medals! But most are not particularly rare. They are worth slightly more because they are cased and some are named. Here...
Although the "blut und ehre" inscription is common, not all HJ knives had it. After 1938, the inscription was forgotten altogether. What does...

You won't like my collection then :p
I want one of these! Very nice
