Iver Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) ..hello.. the case is in superb condition, but its not for this "old type" cross, but for one with "normal" crown... i have bought it together with a decree for GVK mdK.. here are some photos... unfortunatly no inscription or makers logo...

Iver Posted May 22, 2011 Author Share Posted May 22, 2011 Haynau: ..no, the cross was bought here in Slovakia, the case + the decree (few threads befor this) came from Croatia... But as I wrote, the case is made for classic cross, not this one with small crown... but I have bought the cross in Mayers case dated 1907, so I am waiting for an old case (with FJ/V initials on the lid) to buy...

bazsi Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 It looks like as a funeral piece, I have a FJO knight's cross which manufacture is similar to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iver Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yes, really should be funeral piece. Is it possible to see your FJO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazsi Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Of course:-). Unfortunately not the best photos. I have posted it in a topic on medals.extra.hu, but the forum doesn't work now, so I can't be able the insert the link now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erikscollectables Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) Here a wartime decree. For most of the war this officer was a leader of an Artillery Reconoissance team and won several medals for that. How he ended up in the Artillery Restmaterial collection department is unclear to me. He had no wounded medal so that is not it maybe otherwise physical or psychological unfit to continu the difficult fighting tasks?
