Travel-Cutlery-set dating from Napoleonic Wars
Chris Boonzaier replied to Josef Rietveld's topic in Napoleonic Wars
I believe I have a Von Reisinger way back in my family tree. The name is familiar, I think my grandmaother mentioned it in connection with the Danish side... but seeing this I assume it may be from the Austrian side... -
Well, definately not the same quality.... but the question would arise.... is there really any need to fake this???? Another question... was it only awarded to Austrians?
-
Actually, quality aside, the design is a tad better than some of the modern medals we see around to day.... Could it be, that due to the lack of a ribbon, some enterprising soul made one to display with the medal? If it had been produced and awarded, i suppose a regular qaulity ribbon would have been used ?
