| | | WW II medals and pins |  |  |
I have a collection of old world war two german medals and pins. I found them as I was cleaning up a Aunts apartment after she passed. I was wondering if anyone in Brandon could look at them and give me some information Edited by admin, 2012-06-15 11:36:47. Reason: title |

I guess it depends on whether you're looking for value on them, or the history behind them.
Be wary of some here today - gone tomorrow travelling antique searchers if it's a value you are wondering about. I'd do computer research and see if you can find anything out first.
Longshot possible, but there is a local German Society. Maybe someone there is into that kind of thing and is knowledgable.

I wonder if the guy at People's Market place might be helpful...although they're more into coins if memory serves me.
Cool find anyway.

If you want to give them to a Museum you can choose either the RCA Museum in Shilo or the XII Manitoba Dragoons 26th Field RCA Museum in Brandon.
Or do research yourself and keep them within your family.
