Hi,
Welcome on board.
It seems to be logic that the colour of the buckle change with regulation. You can use a leather binde with painted buckle, and it will be easier to wear on your uniform.

Hello Deutschritter,
i do not want to derail this thread - but since you forwarded the question, maybe you can
help me on this one.
If someone is already possessing a hereditary title, e.g. Freiherr then what is the point of awarding
him a Ritter? - I had noticed this on others as well - e.g. a Freiherr von Reitzenstein being awarded
a Ritter. - is it about the "price-money" that comes with it?
Otherwise isn't that as if you would award an English Lord a Sir.?
Regards
Andreas

Hi,
I have in my Saxon database and I have found nothing more than Blackcowboy.
This is probably a retired officer who served in the back of the front. For that we should read the Saxon Rangliste

A very stern-looking man. The 3rd & 4th medals appear to be identical, to my untrained eye. Does anyone know what awards these are on his ribbon bar?
Hi Matt, it seems to be the Albert Orden 2nd and 1st class. Next is the Verdienst Orden

Thanks for your help. The text in on the back of one Saxon Jäger Bataillon officer card. For me it's a Leutnant. I can't find him on my saxon list

Hi,
If you want an interesting information about this order, Neal O'Connor has done it in English in his volume 3 of Aviation awards of Imperial Germany in WW1, if you read German you could buy the Dieter Weber's book, Die Orden des Königreiches Sachsen.
If you want another info, send me a pm

Hi,
Nice project. Definitively, the third ribbon is for Albrecht Orden (probably 1st class). About the other medal, I agree with PKO4 and WF3b. It is not possible to see TR medal here like there is no Hindenburg cross.

Hi
In the O'Connor's book, volume 5, page 65 he "presented himself to the local command in Hamburg as a volunteer on August 2, 1914"

Hi John
It is a Scharffenberg knight cross. Nice one. Too bad there are chips in the enamels on the back. After that, if you want it, it will depend of the price of course.

Hi Valter,
About the aera of your research, you need the Ranglisten from Prussian Bavaria, Saxony and Wurttemberg from 1914. If you want more, just take Ranglisten after 1908 (you can see some kolonial information like orders with swords. You won't find the medal for South Afrika written in the RL)
The Ehrenranglisten is very important (to know who died during WW1). And at least you need the Reichswehr Ranglisten from 1924 or 1925. It is enough to begin good research

Hi
Very interesting and informative subject. Thank you for the enlightenment.

Hi
The research may still be possible. You need to see in the list of the owner of the White falcon knight cross 2nd class with X and the Ernestine knight cross 2nd class with X and the Saxe Meiningen officer cross. After that, you need to write to Solomon to see if the name you found has received the Lippe Detmold cross 2nd class.
But even with the name it is not sure 100%. I don't know if the Oldenburg's list is available. the fun of research begins
Christophe
PS : the list of Saxe Weimar and Ernestine orders are available (see Michael Autengruber or Daniel Krause)

Hi,
The fourth ribbon should be the Ernestine knight cross
