Thank you both for the quick response.
If the second medal is the Bavarian Military Merit Cross, then what is the third medal? It appears to be silver and about 38mm around the same size as the century medal only slightly smaller. To my untrained eye it appears to be the Hessen Allgemeines Ehrenzeichen für Rettung von Menschenleben 1894 , but that is only 33mm and not as large as the one in the picture appears to be.
Can you all help me identify the third medal?
Blessings,
Patrick
