just out of cuiousity: I only recognize 1 guy in the series above. Who are the others?

not to be difficult, but its the house order of Oranje and the Order of Oranje-Nassau, right?

So this site is wrong? https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orde_van_Oranje-Nassau#De_versierselen it says the decorations did not vary since the foundation of the order To me it looks more like this https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huisorde_van_Oranje#De_Huisorde_bij_zijn_instelling_in_1905_en_de_later_ingestelde_graden

According to Dave Danner, there were 7 to SL-officers and 7 to Hessen-Kassel and Sachson officers. I am most interested in the names of the hessians. Sofar I have 3: Leutnant Georg Ernst Wille, Johnn Carl Rainier von Ende and Major Friedrich Wilhelm Carl Eduard Freiherr von Haynau. Hoping to complete the list, I turn to the experts on this forum

Coud I see a clos-up of that chilean one? I a curious

My guess: because they did not know beforehand for how long the war would continue. So they probably got the 1870 first, followed by the 1871 and concluded by the 70-71 for the entire war. But thats just me...I have no idea

it has such amazing details compared to so many other orders. What pricerange do I have to think of when it comes to a single Knightscross?
