BlackcowboyBS,
That is a great bar. Do you know who the owner was and how he won the 'Life saving medal' ?

Igor,
Thanks. I have not seen too many of these with the naval ribbon.

sumserbrown,
I appreciate the offer?!!! I would not want to disturb it from its prominent placeholder position?!!!!

sumserbrown, I agree with Bill. It looks fine to me as well(the forefinger protruding from the baton, the bottom of the baton and the headdress all look ok) and it looks in in very good condition. Great purchase, very hard to find. I would love to have one myself.

Sumserbrown, do you think it might be a re-issue?

sumserbrown,
Interesting medals, I have seen the one on the left before as an unofficial medal with a smaller suspension ball. But never the one on the right.

Medal looks ok to me. An official type 2.

Thanks scottplen. Waldo you look pretty close with your prices, the EK2 can have a large price variation depending on the manufacturer, quality and whether it is a cast iron core or stamped steel.

2. Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Medal(Centenary Medal)
3. Prussian Regimental Honour Cross
4. ?
5. ?
And a Prussian Landwehr Long Service Award is below medals 3 and 4.

Ura87,
Nice medal. Have you been able to translate what the stamp says on the ribbon?

There is a TWM marked 'PREISSLER PFORZHEIM' up for sale at Bene Merenti's next auction. The enamel is superior quality to what has been shown in this thread so far, the pin looks the same though.
Could Preissler be a distributor? Or this one a fake/reproduction?

sumserbrown,
The first could be an Official Type 2, although it is a little worn, which makes it a little difficult to identify. The other two I have never seen before, so not sure about either of them.

1812 Overture,
Some great information on these websites, unfortunately nothing about unmarked pieces though:

I think the manufacturing mark is 'Vince Mayer & Sons from Vienna', but seeing the medal will help.

Are you able to show us the medal?
