Germany WWI Hesse War Merit Medal 1916

Imperial Germany - Grand Duchy of Hesse: 
WW1 Medal of War Merit.
The medal was instituted in 1916 initially in 
bronze and since May 1918 in bronzed zinc 
(due to war shortages). 
It was awarded for war merit to those that 
wouldn’t qualify for higher bravery and 
military awards (such as the General Medals 
for Bravery and War Merit, the Cross of Merit 
for Military Medics etc).
Despite its small size (diameter 25 mm), this 
is a full size and not a miniature or a reduced 
size medal.
