    4. Hi, Collecting Imperial ribbon bars since 15 years, I have seen the price grow up so quickly since 5 years. I'm esthonished of the high price we can see on ebay. I have the chance to find in local show some nice ribbon bars to little price (between 20 and 40 euros). I remember my first ribbon bar I have bought for only 20 DM (see the first photo) and now the price for one ribbon like this is now 300 or 400 euros. Too high for me (see the second ribbon bar bought on ebay -not me). That's life, everybody want one beautiful ribbon bar an especially one belonged to a Pour le M?rite winner. But like you know only 687 officers during the WW1 received this medal. Regards Christophe
    5. Note the hooks on the reverse, this is the first time I see the back of the ribbon bar like this. Christophe
    6. The reverse. For Rick L, this man received first the Ernestine Verdienstkreuz, became officier and then received the EH3bX. This is why he put the crown on the second ribbon to make the difference. Thanks Rick for your help Christophe
    7. Thanks Rick. If I have read this ribbon bar correctly, I shouldn't buy it. That's life Regards Christophe
    8. Hi everybody, Please find my new treasure. One ribbon bar with Hesse ribbons. It is (I hope) for one doctor. Have a look Christophe
    9. Nice group Bob Just for my information, the soldier or the NCO who received this group, why there is no EK2 ? Because like he received this medal, I am esthonished that the officer who purposed him only for this medal . Christophe
    10. Very, very nice medal bar Does the FO3bX have a hallmark ? Christophe
    11. Hi everybody Have a look of my Wurttemberg MVO. Don't hesitate to post your WM3 Christophe
