Hi, yeah will do so - I have some connections to guy who have some great Finnish stuff. Maybe they are willing to sell some items ...we will be in touch.

Hi, no I do not possess the group. Just heart about it. Sorry for confusing you 🙂

Not yet, Kameraden. Not yet.

Probably for sale at the German auction ... might be interesting ... Cheers Dede

Hi misiu, I would be interested. Pls contact me via PM. Cheers Mikko

Wow, great!

Why?

Ok, that is good to hear. Hopefully they have Not Been so expensive...regarding other stuff from this House ????

That is really interesting. I own weidgen's Award document for the Finnish medal of Liberty. All His Other documents i sold 4 years ago to a German collector

Hi guys, interesting topic. Here is my only dogtag...but I think it is a nice and rare one...unfortunately it is broken in the middle. Finnish Jäger Bataillon 27, located in Lockstedt. Regards Mikko

Hello Christer, I found it - it was an auction in Sweden...but in 2012... http://www.probusauktioner.se/auktion/objectWinInfo.asp?objektnr=558&auktionsnamn=Auktion%2019%20den%205%20november%202012 Never miss a probusauktioner-auction

Hello Christer, that is a nice one. I haven't had an auction on my screen in April. Was it sold at Swedish ebay? Greetings Mikko

hello, i found out, that the soldier also received an ek1 in ww1. could this information help to find a name? it would be also interesting to know, christophe, when your possible candidates had died. one could only receive a helsinki medal when stoll alive in 1938?! regards mikko

thank you, christophe. so the research is going on... maybe the volkspflege decoration can be a key. and the veteran must have been still alive in 1938 due to the helsinki medal...ok, all lot of baltic division veterans have been quite young mikko

Thanks Christophe, hm, maybe an additional information (the last I have - wanted to keep it to see whether someone hits the name straight...). The seller told that him was told (and maybe so on...) that the guy was Oblt Grimm (or Graim)... That's all I have... Maybe a hint? Maybe not! Cheers Mikko

Hello Gentlemen, recently, I could acquire this interesting miniatyre chain from a Baltic Division-veteran. All I could research for my own is the fact, that this guy must have been from the "Sächsische Karabinier-Regiment". On the chain the following crosses are missing: Weimarer-Medaille KVK 2 Helsinki Medaille 1938 The "Sächsische Karabinier-Regiment" was located in the city of Borna. Is someone out there who can give a name to this chain? I will be very thankful. Best regards Mikko

Hello collectors, I got into the possession of maps of a person called M. Ritter und Edler von Oetinger; he signed some of his maps with "v. Oetinger". I am not familiar with him - a hint for you research gnomes - might be on one of the added pictures, it says: M. Ritter u, Edler v. Oetinger Hauptmann u. Kommandeur J Mun Kol 1 G R Feldpoststation 286 (Kolonnenstelle) Who can help me? And who is interested in these maps - it is really not my area of collecting. Regards Mikko

very nice

Hello Christer, wow, thank you for the pictures. From what book did you take them? Regards Mikko

I can not believe this ... why was this his fate?

Nowadays it is almost impossible to be 50 years at the same employer...but yearly in the 20th century, why not.

Here is another difficult one...maybe the number "50" can be a valuable hint. Regards Mikko

Dear Research Gnomes, I opened my treasure box for another medal bar...although it might be again to difficult to identify, I can only sleep well unless the truth pops out whether it can be identified or not. Regards Mikko

Rick, thank you for your explanation.

Thanks for the offer Rick. I will try this once more: http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/58860-imperial-bavarian-group-with-finnish-medals-picture-existing/ It was posted in June, but no response. Maybe it fell under the table due to the great Finnish awards thread. Best regards Mikko
