Very rare. This is the third one I’ve seen and is modeled after a popular tinnie. Awarded for the 4th Reichsnährstand Harvest Festival (Reichserntedankfest) in Munich 1937. It is constructed out of a die struck zinc alloy base that have been silver washed and burnished. The round shaped obverse features a single wheat sheaf (right), a mobile swastika (left) and a sword laying down, all surrounded by “4 Reichsnährstands - Ausstellung - München 1937” The reverse reads: “Zur Erinnerung an Die Vorführungen Der Reichsschule des Reichsnährstandes für Leibesübungen Burg Neuhaus” (In memory of the demonstrations of the Reich School of the Reichsnährstand for physical exercises Burg Neuhaus), above a decoration. It measures 2 3/8 inches in diameter. Nice patinaed silver. It comes housed in a wood and pressed cardboard case that is covered in a blue-grey simulated leather covering. The top emblem features the Reichsnährstand Blut und Boden eagle emblem. The swastika has been rubbed out. The interior is maker marked “Deschler & Sohn München 9”. The case is worn. A neat assembly!
