The first pic is too bad to say something about the decorations.

I don`t think, that this one is ready to ID.

May be a Godet one and of a navy guy.

Are U sure, that this bar is a period one?

Seems to be good. But not to ID.

fantastic.

si vis pacem - para bellum. ?

Nicest pistol ever.

I would say it is a WS - Wagner & Sohn piece.

It`s not only a good work - it is fantastic. I thank you for the 1000 hours of work with all the data you have.

Move on, Dave and never stop .

Sometime you can find the Grubenehrenzeichen on a bar. But i have only seen a few.

I don`t collect 3rd R. - but your bar looks very nice and original.

Yes, i could be Werner, but this info is not 100 % sure.

I do not like every piece, they`re selling there. But that only my opinion.

Your shown piece looks good. I know it. It should be a silver gilded piece of the Münzamt Stuttgart

It was produced in 1916 or later.

I like the MVO also because of its Sprungring.

A MG sS Abteilung´s guy.

Hi, you can find them also in a 1st class.

"we" is the only marker which made a stamp into the eyelet.

As i began collecting somebody said: "we" means Weckwerth - but i do not know a Jeweller "Weckwerth".

so it is still unknown.

May be a Skoda Mörser?

Seems like austrians

Ich bin halt der Größte ... lach?

I know, i am the chief ... lol

I hope, Dr. M. is moving on of publishing data of the Landesarchiv.

Wuerttemberg rules. lol..

The green paraphe on the last shown pic is from Mergenthaler

And that´s the end of the story - in 1942.

Für die Dauer des Krieges wurden fremdländische Dekorationen (aus feindlichen Staaten) üblicherweise abgelegt. Deshalb

findet man auch gelegentlich Schnalle, an den z.B. russische, rumänische, italienische usw. Dekorationen fehlen.

Ich finde es nur bemerkenswert, das vorliegend die Dekoration sogar während des Krieges unter Vermittlung des neutralen Spaniens

an das Dt. Reich zurückgegeben wurde.

Sorry, my english isn`t good enough.

And here a closeup of the letter with award numbers of the Nachverleihungen after 1918. (which was new for me)

And here we have a letter, which shows, that for example Johann Wagner & Sohn, Berlin also produced decorations after Nov. 1918

And here we have something special - voila:

A returned decoration of a russian Großfürst - in 1916 an enermy - it returned over the spanish consulate

Here are a lot of Rückgaben of decorations of the former kingdom of Wuerttemberg

Here some stuff of it:

A little refresh of that thread:

Hello Dave?

What about  the Anhalt Friedrichscross (Friedrichskreuz) on green-white ribbon (for non-combatants) - (~ 1600 awards) ?

I have two nice bars here, and i`d like trying to ID these ones. I am nearly sure, that both are Anhaltiner paymasters or from the Intendantur.

Please, please finish the Anhalt rolls (for non-combatants). I am excited like a kid...

And what about Württemberg? D a n i e l - the Wilhelmskreuz is calling :)

Cool. Thanks for sharing

? Thank you v e r y much  - seems your a god of data.

Yes and as a background always use Wollstoff, Filz, Seide or Samt in black.

You can also find some good cheap frames at IKEA

I think this is a non official commemorative medal.

Here we have another pic of my collection:

It seems to be the commander of the II. Bat. RIR 219

He wears his IC2nd class as a 1st class. - never seen. (only in WW2)

And i have a question:

I cannot find a Major Vatke - Falke, Watke .......

On his Feldspange - ribbon bar he wears IC2nd class (may be for 1870/71) - ...... - RAO , i think LSC25 and ........

Can anybody help to ID that guy. - Yes, i know i am asking a lot - sorry for that !
