Ref: 1737

Adolf Hitler, National Socialist (Nazi) Party's assumption of power 1933, bronze medal


Obv: bust of Hitler left, name below, Unser die Zukunst around (The future is ours)

Rev: Nazi spread eagle with swastika, 1933 below, Im Jahre deutscher Schicksalswende around (The year German fate changed)

 

Condition: Almost extremely fine; Diameter: 36mm

Notes: the story of Hitler and Nazi Germany is too well known to repeat here, except to say that rather like Napoleon not being French, it's often forgotten that Hitler wasn't German but Austrian. The legends are almost ironic, with the benefit of hindsight.
