Does any one have an example of a Lippe Detmold Military Merit Medal with a mark under the wreath on the side displaying the rose. On an example that i have found for sale by emedals there is a mark which i can't make out completely clearly, but seems to read G. LOOSDIR. Is this a common mark or something personalised? Many thanks in advance.

Just wanted to share my own set of these beautiful medals

Thanks a lot for all your advice. I will try to lay my hands on any informative books/articles i can on german medals. However, with respect to medal shows, i live in Malta, which due to various reasons (including small size and having been a british possession in both World Wars), does not host any medal fairs/shows, especially not German ones!
By the way, is there any indication apart from price that this is a fake, so if i come across any more examples i will be able to tell for myself?
Once again, thanks for your help. I feel soory for those who bid on it and are expecting the real thing (unless their willing to pay so much for a fake)

Sorry, forgot to mention that he .
Sorry, forgot to mention that he states that the 936 mark is on the clasp, and that an 800 mark is on the jump ring.

Hi all,
I found this Pour Le Merite on Ebay. The seller says its original, but i am a bit sceptical. Not having much experience, I would like some help. For one thing, although at the time of writing it has 10 bids, it is only priced at 101 euro. What would be the likely price for a Pour Le Merite. He also says it is hallmarked with a 936 mark as well as the letters SW, which i am not sure what they stand for. The nearest match I can find is my Iron Cross 2nd class, which was made by Sy and Wagner. He also gives a weight of 23 grams, which does seem a little light. As I already said, I'm only sixteen and have only been collecting for two years.

Thanks, in fact i didn't bid on it. You were right, there is a difference between the two.

I saw this on ebay, and i'm tempted to bid on it. I would greatly value some opinions on it, as i have only been collecting for two years and don't know much about this particular military merit medal.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I've purchased this silver navy wound badge, but i would value some opinions on it as i haven't been collecting for a long time. I had to write down the URL because i can't (or haven't figured out how) upload pictures of good quality yet.
Thanks a lot

Update: I also found this mark on an arts and science medal from anhalt, but also on a couple of a coins?! Could anyone please help me figure out if the mark belongs to the above medal, as i know it is rare, with less than 2000 issued. Thanks a lot.
