Bernhard H.Holst Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hello Chris.Thanks for drawing our attention to these two articles. It is disappointing to find these in "Die Welt" which I have considered reasonably accurate and have read from time to time. Just a simple error should have been caught by an editor ( if such a person does exist ) namely that Fredrick the Great reigned from 1712 to 1786.While I am not too good in retaining money values the figures given by a so-called expert appear taken off the wall and do not reflect the current prices asked by German dealers.Bernhard H.

utopis Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Quite comical. €5000 for a set of oakleaves with swords - at that rate I'd take a whole bunch. The comments are even funnier, declaring that collecting orders and medals is dead and soon everything will become worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
