Hello

thanks

Gentlemen

I am seeking a third class order of the black eagle from the 30s

any recommendations as to where i might go?

thanks

here

This is an hat eagle from the Polish 2nd Infantry rifle division that was stationed much of the war in Switzerland after having fought in France

Eagle is original, though unfortunately modified on the back which reduces its value. Originaly came with a thread and spinner

This could be a private issue prewar. The more desirable VMs are the Govt issued numbered ones. There were also private issued replacement ones.

If this is a correct pre war private issue, maybe its worth 100 plus. There were also copies made like from Panasiuk. I can not tell if this is a private issue or a copy

sorry that is all the help I can say. Maybe you post on ebay and see what occurs?

Thank you

so when a foreign diplomat would wear his reductions...the others with ribbons.....or would he only wear them on a chain?....he would wear a gold miniature badge?

do you have an example of what one would look like?

sorry for the bother

thanks

stanislaw,

Usually, a Commander class badge of the Legion of honor (or any other order which is first in preseance) is not worn as a miniature, but full size around the neck.

Nevertheless, miniature Commander badges will occur when foreigh recipients wear their own national commander class badges to their necks.

In such a case, an officer's gold miniature badge is worn, with a short silver ribbon (canapé) under the rosette sewn on the red suspension ribbon.

When only the reduction badges of the orders were worn directly on a chain without ribbons, a foreign recipient of the Legion d'honneur would simply wear a gold badge with no further mark of distinction.

Hope this does not seem too confused. I have tried my best.

Regards

Veteran
