Stunning Russian Front Medal and Packet

I bought this from a collector years ago who used to go to the Foreign Legion and get what he could from the vets, he learned how to drink there too! Anyway, this is about as good as they come, not mint but super nice. They almost never have finish on them but this one is great. These are made from zinc and because of the metal base often have problems, I can see some bubbling but as long as stored well it should be fine for our life times.
