Herr General

I'm a big fan of Dutch awars. A Lot of Dutch awards where given to German persons because of the close relationships between the various states and monarchs. Does anyone have photo's of medalbars with Dutch awards? I will show a few I found online: EK II. Klasse, 1914 K?niglicher Hausorden von Hohenzollern, Ridder met zwaarden Roter Adler Orden 4. Klasse Offiziersdienstauszeichnungskreuz f?r 25 Jahre Deutsches Reich, China-Denkm?nze f?r Nichtk?mpfer Centenarmedaille Sachsen-Meiningen,Ehrenzeichen f?r Verdienste im Kriege 1915 ? 1918 Schaumburg-Lippe, Hausorden, Kreuz 4. Klasse Niederlande, Orden von Oranien-Nassau, Ritterkreuz mit Schwertern ?sterreich, Milit?rverdienstkreuz 3. Klasse former George Seymour collection

Jozsef Foherczeg was a Hungarian Prince or General I believe... The named a ship after him according to google.

Does anyone now how many silver medal of merits from Waldeck-Pyrmont where awarded?

Good question! Ofcourse it is impossible to replace such an item. I'm still looking at different options to insure my collection..

no one with an idea?

I have a medal group with a German medal in it. I would like to insure my medals. What would be a fair assessment for this group? Netherlands - remembrance medal 1926 - awarded 775 times - with document Waldeck-Pyrmont - silver medal of merit - with document - with document Luxembourg - silver medal in the civil and military merit order Belgium - bronze medal for foreign servants - - with document Included in the group is a photo of the recipient, a lackey at the dutch court.

This medal (wissam es salaam) is turning up in Dutch medal groups also!

Thanks for reminding me Rick. I will get back to this topic with a scan!

GREAT I was researching this man a short while ago; Officer of Health second class - H. Mitrea Commander in the Order of the Crown of Romenia Medal for the expedition to Mexico (French) Cross for important war actions (Dutch) 15 years service cross (Dutch) Ranglist KL-KNIL van 1889. "Rangs- und Eintheilungsliste s?mmtlicher Herrn Stabs- und Ober-Offiziere und Parteien des kais. mexicanischen Corps ?sterreichischer Freiwilliger". Dr.med. Hilarius Mitrea Oberlieutenant-Arzt (1st April 1866) http://www.austro-hungarian-army.co.uk/mex.../mxranklist.htm

I agree with Rick, but I rather see the price go up by a few bucks then the information being lost forever....

Dutch officers bar with bravery award. What is the first ribbon on the second row?

In 1996 Sotheby's sold the Dickin medal to the dog Ricky. Does anyone have a catalogue from that time? I'm looking for images of the group!

Nice project! Here's more info about these two campaign stars: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France_and_Germany_Star http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1939-1945_Star Your father most likely also received these two: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Medal_1939%E2%80%931945 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defence_Medal

http://onderscheidingenforum.nl/viewtopic....150&start=0 The same as this houseorder in my collection. Only then in white with the dutch flag in the ribbon.

Do you have a name? Maybe I can find some info! Great group!

Great, could we see the rest of the group?

There not Dutch in my opinion!

Thanks for your reply! Very helpfull! I have to find a list with Dutch state visits to see what is lying more close together. Luxembourg or Liberia and if there is a visit from England and Liberia close to this visit!

Are there any Dutch persons in the Rolls?

1 of al 5, but I have to wait untill the prices are set. I a still a student and my income is variable

I will pm you the email adres of a lady at the archive of the Buchenwald memorial. She has helped me in the past.

Hi Arthur, thanks for your reply. I do think that the first is the Royal Victorian Order. Inside the rosette you can see the real color. The rosettes are added by the Dutch firm van Wielick. They do this with every foreign order Officers class. The have ribbons made specialy for themselfs. A few of the Dutch Ribbons are very discolered by the sun. I think that this is also the case with the RVO. There is a Dutch Royal jubilie medal in the row. So i'm thinking adjudant to the Queen during some state visites... I know of a few other RVO's awarded bye the Queen in Holland.

Could be, but isn't this a Order only awarder to members of the Commenwealth?

In the last row, Royal Victorian Order from England ? Unknown Military and Civil order of Alphonse Nassau from Luxemburg? Can anyone help me?
