      No-but my guess is Ashanti.

      Very nice Prussian Stahlhelm banner!
    3. Ulsterman
      nice bar!
    4. Ulsterman
      with or without a medal?
    5. Ulsterman
      There is photographic evidence that Red Cross men AND military sanitats types were awarded both the EK and the HK. I concur however, that the VAST ( as in 99.9%+) majority of these ribbons would be for the war cross.

      Perhaps it is the second row of a two part group.

      #2 ist Kreigsehren-Medaille 1915-18 (Lippe Detmond) am Band fur Verdeinst im Feindesland. (#1191 Nimmergut Bandercatalog); translated lippeDetmond war service medal for service at the front or "in enenmy territory".

      OK- looks very 1960s to me- but what is it?
    11. Ulsterman
      Good for you Rick-history is preserved. Any chance the complete set will be posted here so that we all could enjoy them? Thanks!

      Nice one gerd.
    13. Ulsterman
      Combination is ok and the back certainly looks good, although the patina might be stained rather than rusted and cleaned. The eagles are what bother me-but if i saw it i'd buy it.

      Great-the Polish Marshals' signature is a treasure. A great man. If Napoleon had been quicker off the mark, he'd have made him a King of Poland.

      Good lord- I had no idea those ultra Maoists even had medals. Where did you get that?
    16. Ulsterman
      Really good thread. Great medal!
    17. Ulsterman
      Great group-note the stamp on the EK2 document.
    18. Ulsterman
      GREAT medals! I can not wait to see the revolution group. Well, I am trying to translate the book for the Horthy era, but beyond descriptive nouns it's a very hard slog.

      Great medal-and Hard fought battles- "a Waterloo every one" one General later said. Certainly the British casualties were enormous and few realize that the Seikh army was as good-if not better- than most European armies. The Seikhs were also French trained are there are accounts of old French Napoleonic officers facing off against their British enemies -30 years later.

      I was watching this auction with interest and backed off when Marcus Ravery bid-alas. The dealer is an antique dealer in northern Vermont, USA, who had some spectacular Austrian medals which obviously were pulled in a private sale after being in the open only one day.

      I doubt it was Bohn-wasn't he British? My money is on #1.
    22. Ulsterman
      Very small world. i just bought the History of the 47th Reserve Division book!
    23. Ulsterman
      Aren't the medals just wrong? #2 should be a Silesian eagle ? What ribbons are those?
    24. Ulsterman
      It's always a good day for me when i see somEthing new on the thread!
    25. Ulsterman
      Ooops-my mistake.
