Great item, nice find where did you pick it up? Dan
-
Out of interest Lew, how much were they asking for it? Dan
-
I'm considering it Chris! I do have a growing Hindenburg cross collection and I'm interested in prussian awards. But the design of the TR stuff really gets me!

I hadnt seen Don's site before. Its very informative, and shows this tag for what it is - a nasty fake. Im new to TR and shocked by the numbe of fakes out there, both good and bad. I think that over 2/3 of the items i have looked at to purchase have been fakes, possibly even more. I can see that i am going to have to do a lot more reading before getting my wallet out! Thanks for your insight guys Dan

Hi there with out a better picture my guess is the 6th Battalion, The Rhodesia Regiment. Not sure if that would fit with the light infantry/rifles though..... Dan

Afternoon Chaps what can you tell me about this? is it the Knights Cross of the War Merit Cross? "1" and "900" stamped at the base of the lower arm of the Cross and the ribbon loop. It measured 54 mm across, with the oak leaves center measuring 18mm and the width of the arms being 3mm. Is it right?

I have used nail varnish remover too, rubbed over the affected area with a Q-tip. then rinsed the medal under warm water and dried off with a hairdryer. Sounds more like a beauty makeover! :jumping:
