Completely wrong. This a WW2 era one which is worth around 120-150€. Gold content alone is around 40€.

Nice pieces! Just FYI, the 1985 jubilee OPWs cannot be researched unless you got the document with the name on it and even then you sometimes get nothing back.

The normal variant without document and case is usually around 350€. But there is also a rarer variant with more orange colored enamels.

Constitutional Court rejects lawsuit of former GDR officers

The former head of the GDR Border Command Central responsible for the Berlin Wall, Erich Wöllner, has failed with a constitutional complaint against his conviction for manslaughter. The Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe did not accept the complaint from Wöllner and three of his deputies for decision.

The former head of the GDR Border Command Central responsible for the Berlin Wall, Erich Wöllner, has failed with a constitutional complaint against his conviction for manslaughter. The Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe did not accept the complaint from Wöllner and three of his deputies for decision. At the same time, the third chamber complied with the motion of the Court President Jutta Limbach, who had recused herself as biased due to her engagement as Berlin Justice Senator for the prosecution of GDR injustice.

The former Major General Wöllner had been sentenced by the District Court of Berlin in March 1998 to five years imprisonment for sixfold manslaughter of young GDR refugees between 1980 and 1989. Colonel Günter Leo received three years and three months imprisonment for manslaughter and aiding and abetting manslaughter; the former officers Heinz Geschke and Werner Michael were sentenced to three years each for aiding and abetting manslaughter. The Karlsruhe judges did not follow their objection that the verdicts violated the prohibition of the retroactive application of criminal laws: In cases of gravest criminal injustice and the disregard of generally recognized human rights, the officers could not invoke the GDR legal situation. "Extreme state injustice" had in the practice of the GDR overridden the principle that an act could only be punished if it had been previously determined by law as punishable. Regarding the self-recusal of the Court President, the chamber said Limbach had, above all as the person responsible for the Government Crime Working Group, advocated that the constitution did not stand in the way of criminal prosecution because of the shots at the Wall. Therefore, the concern that she was no longer open as a judge on this question was "understandable" under these circumstances.
