The evidence for the assortion that it was Rohe's medal bar is his personal military record which still is in the Bavarian War Archive in Munich. I own a copy of the award document for the 1939 bar to the Iron Cross.

Paul, this is right, a fantastic book by a well known author who has been an Imperial German collector for decades (made a fantastic book about Oldenburg orders/medals years ago), pics are not color. Regards, Karl

Hi Paul, there is a new book on the market about German lifesaving medals: Friedhelm Beireiss, Rettungsmedaillen deutscher Staaten 1782 - 1918, Verlag Patzwall, Norderstedt 2006, ISBN 3-931533-06-9. I have got the info from this book. Karl

This is not a post war medal, it was awarded between 1918 and 1933. Total awards number was 183 plus another 44 winners of the 1st model got it in exchange against their older medal. In my opinin the sales price is very low.

One can see a lot of these medals still today especially in Bavaria.
