Royal House Order of Hohenzollern
Members Cross
Measurements:
Cross with crown: 58.56 x 39.49 mm
Crown: 22.43 x 19.07 mm
Medallion: 18.03mm
Weight: 22.95 g
Ribbon: 30 mm / non synthetic / uv-neg.
Case: 101 x 69 mm
The manufacturer sign in the case was used by Godet from 1930 / 1931.
Therefore, this cross should not have been produced before 1930.
Contrary to a normal Members Cross, this have medallion from gold.
Also the ribbon has a difference. Contrary to the normal ribbon, in this ribbon have some threads wrapped with a metal foil. The metal foil is made from silver or aluminium. The ribbon does not necessarily belong to the cross, but was in the case.
Origin of the Cross in case: www.bretzendorfer.de
Similar pieces I have not seen before.
I need some about opinions, or other facts about this cross or case.
Who can say something about this cross, the case, or the ribbon?
