if I'm not mistaken, your application has already been confirmed.
You are all welcome and I look forward to yours contribution to the group. I aware that fb is not the first choice for many collectors, but somehow it was easiest to create a group there, which common thread should be only Austro-Hungarian decorations.
Best regards

Thanks all for nice words.
Sorry, I can not find the release date.
On the left there is a gold and menufacturer stamp, and on the right there is only a stamp *
Best regards.
I have some doubts about these boxes.
I saw that they were occasionally selling at some trade fair, but I have never seen, that they would be selling on any major auction.
Also production, inscription... are different from those of the end of the war.
So I think that they are from the period after ww1
Please forgive me if I am wrong.
I'm still in this beautiful city. Unfortunately, I did not find anything interesting in terms of decorations... Maybe I find something until Saturday.
Once again thanks for yours help!
Best regards,
Dejan
Iver I really admire your box with medal!
But, I seriously doubt that one manufacturer like SOUVAL, used a box from another manufacturer like ROTHE with its logo.
There was a producer who was making only the boxes - ETUIS U. KASSETTENFABRIK IG. BERGMANN WIEN VII... and probably this smaller manufacturers use these boxes.
Rogi I can not say for sure, that the box and the medal do not match... inscription on the box corresponding to this medal!
But it is a little unusual that the box is made of paper ( carton ), which is typical for the late period of the war.
And also the names of the manufacturers are not the same... Therefore my questions -guesses...

Hello!
The hallmark ‘A’ on the rim is for Viennese State Mint (Hautmunzamt Wien) and did not need the extra hallmark for precious metals... So it's definitely silver medal!
But I do not understand how the medal from the period before the war ( WW1), finds himself in a box from the period at the end of of the war?!
It is possible that it is a replacement box?
I would also like to know if in the original set, was required that the manufacturer of the box and the medal was the same?
Otherwise a very beautiful and interesting medals/boxes!!!
Best regards!
The reason that I started this topic is this gold Grosskreuz on original sash:
I bought it recently, not nowing that without the elongated ring is not completely. However, I am very happy with this new acquisition for my collection...
Thank you all for your help!
