      You see it on eBay Germany all the time... "Keine Garantie oder R?cknahme, da Privatverkauf" usually with something special like this:

      I don't know if I agree on that fade thought.... a close look at the back and it sure looks like regular SH ribbon. Of course that simply raises all sorts of additional questions (apart from the ones I already had) about the fact that NO Saxon would have mounted this bar like this pre or post 1934.... I'd take a great big pass on this one....

      OK, it's been awhile... but I am scratching my head on those last two outstanding pieces!!

      Isn't that bar on Rittmeister's site? I believe it was (may be consigned) ?

      Yes, another very nice and overlooked treasure that ran through eBay. He was very proud of his medals as that was some case he made for them!!

      Hi Anatoly, post #15 had this medal in it!

      Here's a nice mint & boxed pair I owned that will show the detail usually found on the obverse of these badges.

      All of the Baqueville badges look like castings to me... but of a far higher quality than the Aux Cruiser badge posted for discussion.

      Now those are some very nice images of an exceptionally scarce medal actually being worn! WOW!! I have never seen an example mounted before. Thanks!

      I agree, looks fine. What is especially nice about this bar are the older-style "tall swords" and the application of the crown to denote the Hohenzollern House Order. I'd say probably a W?rttemburg Friedrich's Order, First Class with Swords in third place. Nice little bar!

      Thanks Saschaw and thanks for correcting my language! Very scarce medal, I would have bid much higher for it but missed. I think the Austrian case very much is in sync with the medal. It was a wonderful little set.
