      Medaille militaire

      dond posted a topic in France

      Now I did it. I stuck my toe into French medals. I saw this sitting in a case of costume jewelry marked "French Broach." I felt sorry that it was in such poor company and brought it home. I will say I got it very cheaply. My question is,"How can you tell what period it is from?"

      Could this ribbon not be the ribbon for the Jubilaumsmedaille an das 10 I.R. Konig, 1932?

      Porcelain pipes

      dond posted a topic in France

      I found these two pipes. They look more German than French to me.

      Nice original 2d class with swords.

      How is it attributed to Godet? Which Godet, J. Godet or Gebr. Godet?

      Thanks for the replies. This is the only photo I have and the buttons are out of focus as it the belt buckle.

      I saw this tucked away in an antique store. Appears to be wearing a buttonhole ribbon for the Bavarian Bravery medal.

      No reply from them.

      I would focus on the badge and not the hardware.
    11. dond
      I just don't see any finish on it so that is my concern.
    12. dond
      I like the badge but I'm not sure if it is gold or a stripped black.
    13. dond
      Thanks again.

      Thanks Eddie. Do they have an email address?

      Does this organization still exist? Perhaps under a different name?
    16. dond
      Are there records for the people that were awarded this medal or was it just a private organization? Thanks in advance.
    17. dond
      Thanks. That is what I thought. I wonder if the number under the LN is the same.

      What is that mark on the back? Can you please do a close up?

      This questionable badge is being flogged by a couple of related ebay.de accounts. The give away is the three dots on the laurel leaf. Combined with the non-Schott pin on the reverse this one is a no brainer fake.

      I don't like the maker mark on this one. Of course the pics could be better.

      You are going to need a bigger house.

      Another small contribution.

      I think there is a Lieber dogtag in this lot:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/LOTx10-German-ID-Badge-Dog-tag-WW1/254205582316?hash=item3b2fd55bec:g:GnoAAOSw9ZtcurBD

        Hi, thanks for the heads up... Nice tags, but I think it is Landwehr.

      He could have been a front fighter in WW1. He just didn't earn any awards. Maybe a young draftee that showed up in the final months only to be part of the retreat.
    25. dond
      Perhaps he was the most uninteresting man in WW1.
