Original German WWII Crimea Krim Shield Decoration - Krimschild No Return He then vectored arriving reinforcementsOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a nice example of a German Krimschild metal shield award, which has been removed from a uniform, so at present there is no fabric included. The shield is in good shape, but does show plating loss and some rust, as these are made with brass plated steel. The back plate is also missing, and the top two of the four clips has broken off. This is a great example with loads of patina! Ready to display. The Crimea
