History

The Oder, Neisse, Baltic Medal was established by the Council of Ministers in 1945. It was awarded to Polish military personnel and civilians for participation in combat near the Oder, the Neisse, and the Baltic Sea in March and April 1945. It was awarded for a short period by the Republic of Poland before it was officially discontinued in 1999.

The Bronze Medal features initials of Polish cities on the obverse map. The "W" stands for Warsaw, the "G" stands for Gdansk, the "S" stands for Shchetsina, and the "W" stands for Vrotslava. The obverse inscription translates to "For Oder, Neisse, Baltic," and the reverse inscription translates to "To the Victors."

There may be additional versions of the Bronze Medal that differ in size or composition.
