Several of the medal bars that were "parts" bars as well as a "parts" ribbon bar. They're getting very good at this fakery.... it was actually caught by RR.

Ooooooooo... about the 6th one I've seen, smooth arms... Nice one to find Ralph, very nice indeed. This version (glatte Arme) was used 1826-1875 only. There's 3 different versions of the cross, I'd date yours towards 1855-75. In 1875, they began using the pebbled armed crosses. An often overlooked rarity!

Detlev had some very special bars this past week as well as a couple that were put-togethers..... The Saxon Bar he had was wonderful, who is getting that one?

The Bavarian one is a little harder to find.... there's several others MUCH harder to find than this! The mecklenburg ones are almost impossible!

Interesting note Chris. But I have a surprising number of groups of ribbon bars right now.... all the same guy(s) and in both styles of bar!

The reverse...... a buddy of mine had this shipped to my house because the seller refused to ship overseas. I was able to hold it in my sweaty little palms!

The reverse of the pair...... sorry for the huge photos, but I really wanted people to see the details!

the dates just seemed not crisp enough....... the detail not quite what I liked to see..... but notice the wear pattern on the FFK2.... all worn on the left arm like it was rubbing against something hanging next to it.

We have been fortunate that this year a photo finally was discovered showing this rare Luftwaffe Badge being worn during the war...... A "hat's off" to Jacques and I will defer to him to post it if he wishes. This email arrived today showing a 1942 award document for this badge! I have no clue, real or not. How many of these has anyone ever actually seen????
