    Are these rare or just ordinary? Supposed to be WWII and I want to find out if €25 is a good price. Thx.

    They are called dress medals, for when the recipient is at a function or dinner.

    Miniature Medals are half the size of full size medals and unlike Full Size Medals they are not issued but have to be purchased by the recipient. Normally these are worn on mess dress uniforms, black tie & suit functions.

    There are some on eBay.uk for around £15 to £20 so €25 is close.
