Fake engraving on an otherwise nice 1914 EK1 brought $935!

Wow! Very nice!

Sorry, no clue! Possibly Romanian? The silver Barr/swords on the last ribbon is an Austrian device I think and doesn’t belong there.

I saw this one too, I think it’s just a Frankenstein bar

Had my eye on that one, beautiful medal in a very nice case! I missed out. He also sold this cased Saxon KVK for a reasonable 233 Euro

@VtwinVince, Wouldn’t a peace time RAO be more appropriate given precedence?

Don’t know but hoping one of you won these! 

Bravo! And good for you! I’m a big fan of reuniting groups. I’ve spent a lot of money trying to do that myself!

Not going to even pretend to understand how this guy can repeatedly offer this fake combination and continue to get bids. In Germany, enhanced with a repeat bar but at least the third time he has offered this combination up for sale. Currently over 300- Euro!!

@VtwinVince, Good Morning! I hope you’re able to get the minis!! They don’t seem to command the attention in the USA as they do in Germany. That medal bar is beautiful!! That’s going to bring big bucks! I couldn’t find it, can you please pm me the link? Thanks!!

Heads Up! This nifty little mini set is on eBay USA now! I usually don’t post active listings but this needs your attention. This might be an identifiable group! Good luck if you’re chasing it!!

I usually don’t post photos sold but I thought this one was worth it, impressive, early bar. Final bid $180

Very nice collection!!

Yep!! Very much agree and hence the pass!

Seller never responded to my request for additional images! So that’s that!

Good Morning! Interesting group but not sure it’s in the right place? I don’t see any Imperial German awards here?

I’ll have to ask him for pictures, thanks for checking in!

Well, sorry about that!! Maybe a kind Moderator can move it, I already deleted the photos 

@VtwinVince, wow Vince, those two are gorgeous and wonderful examples!!

It's a pitty that you don't save any pictures.

Hi Alex, I had a massive photo archive but lost the whole thing. Literally thousands of pieces and I had images of everything and now it’s all gone!!

Almost forgot! When Rick Research looked into the group I had he said my guy was one of the pilots you saw zooming over the dunes as depicted in Lawrence of Arabia! Can still see his portrait in my mind with his EK, Pilot Badge and sporting a nifty moustache!! lol!

I’ve owned a couple of these over the years, always admired the enamel work and writing on this order. No ribbon and yours for a mere 3k asking!!

This one I was unsure of but aging and stitching looked ok, just didn’t care for the opening bid of $80!

Good Morning and great item!! Only the second I’ve seen! Back in the day, I bought a group from Detlev to a pilot who fought in Palestine. Had the large folio award document for the TWM but he was an army pilot. Had his award documents for the EK2 and pilot badge as well. Unfortunately no images still. Nice find!! Congratulations!!

Atrocious copy of the Prussian Pilot Badge, opening bid is $375, BIN is $488. What a joke
