I’ve done that, I have referenced the Kaisers Bunker site and still not found them. In fact I have conflicting information on the one set!

They are listed in the Königlich Preußische Ordensliste. In that case, you need the edition of 1868 (with about 1.500 pages), because the Crown Order 4th class on the white ribbon on your bar should have been awarded for the war in 1866. But unfortunately all the names are listed by the award date of the same class. Therefore these awards on that special ribbon (about 130) are mixed up with the hundreds names of the awards on the normal blue (peacetime) ribbon and with the also hundreds of awards of the order with swords on the war time ribbon.
It would take hours to search these 130 names out of the complete list for the Crown Order 4th class. Sorry, but that time I am not able to afford. 😔
May be in between this book is to be found online and you can search there yourself?
That would be too big of a project for someone who doesn’t own the bar to take on and I wasn’t asking you to do it. I will do it once I find the book.
Thank you to all that have helped! I greatly appreciate it!0 -
Is there a list of the holders of the KO4 on the white ribbon? Maybe I can work backwards.

How about Hauptmann Wendt from Landwehrbezirk I Breslau? In the 1900 Royal Prussian army rank list, he's listed with RAO4, KO3, KO4w, EK2w and LD1.
An RKM3 is still missing, but he might have added that later...
My next rank list is from 1902, in which I could not find him. Neither is he listed in the 1904/05 or 1908/09 issues of Deutscher Ordens-Almanach. Komtur, might you maybe have a look into the Ordens-Listen?
The Königlich Preußische Ordens-Liste was the official source that listed all recipients of Prussian awards that were alive to the date of publishing.
In contrast to the commercially published Ordens-Alamanach, no one had to pay to be listed here. Thus, it's probably our best source for questions like this.
He is gone in 1901. Checked every Wendt.

Thank you for the further information! I have been focusing on Landwehr units do to his 20 year LD1.

Can you explain the Königlich-Preußische Ordensliste?
I am wondering if this was a state publication that listed all holders of an award until death or retirement. Did one have to pay to remain in it? I remember Rick Research mentioning a publication like this.

Why not a naval person?

Thanks to my old friends! I guess I thought this set would generate a bit more interest.

Are you asking about the Fliers Commemorative Badge? If so they made at least three different types. Getting the old itch back?

I am seeing this type of combination in “Justice Advisors” in Garde units. What was their roll?

I received these two pieces today and I am fascinated by the KO4 on NK ribbon. I did find an old article here that said 166 of these were awarded so it is possible. The patina on the ribbons seems consistent. I find the bronze 1870/71 KDM on the chain odd as I would expect silver but I believe this was a possible combination. Are there red flags here that I am missing? I do have a return period on these if there is an issue. Would this have been a long serving administrative Captain of the reserves? All thoughts are appreciated!
I also find it odd that the chain has the orders mounted backwards!

Great collection Daniel! I love the ones with the company logos on them. I have not found one of those in the US yet. Yours is only the third Deumer I have seen.

I know these long service medals are typically considered common and not very desirable. I have always enjoyed collecting the odd pieces that many overlook. I would actually count at least four of these a rare. Hopefully others can post theirs and maybe we can find a fourth maker.
Another set I think are rare.
The common bunch.

I have the three volume set that has many of the citations in it. Too bad this is such a secret- I can’t check for you!

Another Double EK2 Bar
in Germany: Imperial: The Orders, Decorations and Medals of The Imperial German States
Posted · Edited by CRBeery
Not my photo but it is very interesting. Seems all of the dual EK2 bars are post war.
