    That's a delightful little thing-- never seen anything like that before! :cheers:

    I cannot read what the Saint George design medal in the middle says-- is it some sort of local veterans' association medal?

    As the Germans say, "sehr h?bsch." :love:

    Hello!

    Sorry for the bad news, but I think it's a "fantasy-chain".

    There are only two real miniatures. The second miniature is an Austrian war medal, and the fifth is a military long service cross.

    I think, the first "thing" is a star from a german shoulder strap(might be post war).

    Third: star from a hungarian shoulder strap

    Fourth: St. Georg coin. You can find it, some numismatics site.

    Sixth: a simple badge with austrian coat of arms.

    Regards

    Gobag: Thanks for reply. I knew the other one were not miniatures, therefor I wrote only about two miniatures. I dont think its a fantasy chain. The old soldier has just added some more "badges", to make the chain look better.. But thats only my opinion..

    Right-- patriotic kitsch. But very nice with the lions' heads instead of a plain lapel chain.
