Royal Serbian Agricultural Society 1894 Medal
maxblue replied to Neil74's topic in Southern European & Balkan States
There where probably records of recipients but much of the information was destroyed during WWII. Here is a diploma for the medal. Funny to see the colours of the ribbon and flag and the meaning today. -
Gentlemen, This is a serbian cavalry/infantry officers pickelhaube M1847. Serbia was a small country and often adopted other countries design. Except for the serbian coat of arms, is the helmet prussian or russian? To me it looks a bit russian but I might be wrong, what is your opinion?

LUXEMBOURG, ORDER OF THE OAK CROWN
maxblue replied to maxblue's topic in Northern European & Baltic States
Laurentius, I like more the gold ones but I understand what you mean. Yes, it is the simplicity of the design and the colours goes so well together makes it a beautiful order. Yes you did, you mentioned "Bron whp"? -

LUXEMBOURG, ORDER OF THE OAK CROWN
maxblue replied to maxblue's topic in Northern European & Baltic States
No, unfortunately no hallmarks. I have the book on the orders from Luxembourg and there I can read the different producers but I would like to know which of the producers made the different badges that I have. -
Gentlemen, I have, for some strange reason, begun to collect the order of the Oak Crown. I have three badges, two in gold and one in silver. My question is, who is the producer? The first from the left has the same medallion as the badge in the middle but, the first badge (cross) is made of silver while the other one is in gold. The sphere holding the ring is also different between those two badges. The last one to the far right is also made of gold but the medallion, and the oak branches are completely different. On the bottom picture you can see that the thickness also varies. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you!

My little collection of finnish liberty crosses
maxblue replied to JohanH's topic in Northern European & Baltic States
Nice collection! But I have one question, when is the red ribbon used and when is the yellow ribbon used on the Liberty cross with the red cross? How many Liberty crosses withe the red cross 1941 where issued? -
Gentlemanen, General Walter Leuze got the order of the Yugoslav Crown, III class in Berlin 1939. Prince Paul of Yugoslavia made an state vist to Berlin in july 1939 and as usually on these ocassions there where an exchange of orders and decoration. At that time the general was ab colonel. Erich Milch got the I class of the same order.
