Nürnberg Trophy Eagle on High Base


This Nürnberg-stylised trophy eagle is set mounted onto a high base made of cream marble with beautiful veins. A dedication plaque inscribes as this being awarded to Rudi Thoellden with an iron cross insignia inscribed above his name. Below the plaque is a laurel wreath made of aluminum affixed onto the marble. What is of great interest is that this eagle has a RZM marking of M3/100 as shown on the reverse, just below the tail. From author's own collection.
