It's long Story. It's came together with yours and other stuff in 2001 from a small auction house into the collection of a friend of me. He was also the one who sold your silver engraved private purchased badge to a german collector who sold yours into the wide world... Regards Seeheld Your silver badge was sold in the auction without box... Here is a scan from your silver piece made by my friend who brought the badge during the auction and the page from the auction catalog from 2001. Regards Seeheld

Hi Nicolas, at first your informations from Wikipedia is totally wrong. The Griffin order was the lowest order in both Mecklenburg. (Schwerin and Strelitz) And a Knight Cross with Swords has never been existed. I have the complete rolls of all Orders and Medals from Mecklenburg on my files. Wich information do you require exactly? Regards Seeheld

I will have another look tomorrow. All have been awarded with the civilian Class. Crown in Ore is the class for highest nobility only! For example Kings, Dukes, Prince ... Crown in Gold is the class for common nobility or high ranking people. For example Fieldmarshalls, Generals, Minister, Ambassador Regards Seeheld

Hello Guys, last week I got this medal from an old man, who want to melt the medal to get money for the gold. He told me that medal was awarded to his great grandfather (Family name Miehlke). The medal has a diameter of 51mm and a weight of 77g. According to a jeweler the Gold is made from 20kt. It is possible to get informations about Direktor Miehlke? He was living until 1918 in St. Petersburg. How rare is such a medal? regards Seeheld

According to the rolls: 1. Grand cross with crown in ore on 27.09.1879 from Mecklenburg-Strelitz 2. nile 3. Grand cross with crown in ore on 13.08.1865 from Mecklenburg-Strelitz 4. not clear 5. Grand cross with crown in ore on 22.07.1904 from Mecklenburg-Strelitz 6. Grand cross with crown in ore on 19.07.1902 from Mecklenburg-Strelitz The problem are the different names and titles. This is the reason for number 4. Number 2 is for sure not noted in the original rolls. Best regards Seeheld
