Title KuK commemorative Treaty of Brest-Litowsk 'tinnie'
Nationality Austrian
Period 1918
Sold

This commemorates the famous treaty between the Bolsheviks and the Central Alliance, by which Lenin agreed to a comprehensive peace which ceded most of the Baltic states, Poland and much of the Ukraine to Germany. This was the treaty which enabled the famous March offensive of 1918 to take place, which nearly won the war for Germany.

It measures 4.1cm long and is of pressed pot metal construction, with its original steel pin on the reverse and slate grey patination. Its condition is excellent.
