    4. ahhh Thanks a lot!
    5. Anyone an idea?
    6. Thx! for your answer. Claudio.
    7. Early (1880s) black and white enamel cross flory of the chivalrous Order of the Militia of Jesus Christ. Face and reverse identical.
    8. Both are contemporary commemorative medals. Maybe it would have been better to put them into 'Napoleonic Wars'.
    9. Silver medal Frederick Bianchi, Duke of Casalanza 1815 Napoleonic Wars / Neapolitan War - Silver medal on the victory of Tolentino 2 - 3. Mai 1815

    16. thx Paul! maybe a souvenir pin?! http://www.frammuseum.no/Home.aspx
    17. I bought this pin some time ago - a few days ago a friend of mine told me the ship in the middle looks like the 'Fram'. Could anyone identify the pin? Thank you. Zorg
    18. In my opinion it's Germany respectively Alsace-Lorraine. The flag with the Imperial Eagle - it's a decoration flag with a brider stripe in the middle. The 'W' (for Wilhelm?) on the house above. The boat in the foreground ...is that a pioneer boat? I think so.
    19. Unknown type of Vittorio Emanuelle III merit medal. Diameter: ~38mm. Any suggestions?
    20. Yes - a needle in a haystack. But I think the haystack is not too big. The tunnel on the photograph is a special tunnel ...a navigable tunnel - a tunnel for a canal! For example: The Marne-Rhine Canal / Arzviller http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d3/Rhein-Marne-Kanal-Tunnel_03.JPG
    21. Does anyone know where this photo has been shot? Many thanks!
    22. Adolf Georg, Prince of Schaumburg-Lippe. Bronce medal 1869 from F. Brehmer. Silver wedding with Hermine Princess of Waldeck. In poor corroded shape. Anyone interested?
    23. Thank you for your thoughts, Paul. That's just what I was thinking. ... maybe Corporal C.J. (Charles James?) Saxby served in India or took part in the Second Opium War?! we're never going to know.
