Could be. The S&L catalog (1940) has them for 1.10 rm.

Missed that one. Where was it? -
The Boerger & Co catalog shows the silver at 80p. It is a wartime catalog (1939-40 timeframe)

EK 1939 EK II unmarked, with some peculiarities...

I don't collect TR crosses but you see the same stuff on Imperial crosses. -
Thanks for the info. Its a nice bar to a very brave man. Notice he didn't feel the need to jazz it up with a bunch of the "I was there" add-ons that you see on a lot of post war bars. I wonder which 1st class awards he had?

Thanks Dave. The birth connection was my prime theory.

Looking for an army unit that had either a Brunswick Oldenburg connection/affiliation or possibly even a Schaumburg Lippe, Brunswick, Oldenburg affiliation.

I have one of the second type that you show minus the dish.
-
Looks good to me. Do you have a specific concern?

And that is why my Drill Sergeants instilled a no smoking in the foxhole policy into all of us.

Unless he ended up with two items needing mounted, a hindy and perhaps an LS medal. What did he do after the war?
-
Or he just did a new medal bar.
-
What is the mark at the bottom of that Schleisen Eagle?
-
You are probably correct.
-
Possibly a civil servant long service award (with Swaz) or one of the 20-30s let me buy an award type of thingy. Measure the distance from the hook where the medal would hang from to the bottom of the row of awards. Everything else is in a nice straight line so what you are looking for should equal that distance. Perhaps a Kyffhauserbund.

I'd still like to see the entire cross, front and back.
-
I'm not sure that hindy belongs on that bar.
-
That is my understanding.
-
Nice grouping.
-
I think this is a good Weimar "Hey look at me" bar.
-
Could we see the whole cross, front and back? It would be a shame for this thread not to document the whole award.
-
Are you sure it is not the Kyffhauserbund medal ribbon? Hard to tell from the pics.
