      Thanks for the updates. Can you please give also a short description of the appearance of the badges of all classes? Knight second class was in silver and worn on a chest-ribbon. Knight first class was in gold and worn on a chest-ribbon. ...

      OK, thanks.

      Nice to know that German orders could change ribbons. Were there many orders that could do this or was it only the Order of the Red Eagle?

      Thanks Jacky for the reply. The asking price was almost 800 euros, but I suspect it was overpriced.

      Thanks VtwinVince for the reply. Is it normal to have the badge of the Red Eagle with this ribbon? I thought the normal ribbon was white with two red stripes. Was this black ribbon with white stripes some sort of a war ribbon or a bravery ribbon?

      Thanks for the replies. I forgot to mention that the hinge of the case was broken, so its condition was far from perfect. Maybe this is why the price for this was not as outrageous as for the Order of the Zahringer Lion I also posted. On the other hand, I was surprised by the folding of the ribbon. I was expecting the full ribbon to go through the suspension ring, not only a narrower bit sewn to the broader ribbon. Was it normal to have the order worn in this way?

      Thank you all for the replies. As far as I remember the badge was yellow (gold or at least golden, not oxidized silver), so if I understood right it is that for a knight first class. And the price was somewhere around 1200 USD, way above what you seem to consider an honest price. Thanks once again for this introductory lesson in old German orders.

      I have seen this grand officer's star in a dealer's shop and I would be interested in finding out more information about it. Is it authentic? Approximately how much is it worth? Thanks. Obverse
