Two important points you can recognize always from distance:
1.) awarded pieces never have cut-out crosses on the crowns !
2.) awarded pieces habe gilted crowns but the cross is silver !

Nice case, nice box, but the cross do not match. It is different to those kind of crosses made by the Berliner M?nze. I would expect such an awarded piece in this case. And because of this "exchange" i also worry about the box ............ no problem to change the label from an EK-1st-class-box ........... and no problem to print out the label if i have a box for the Red-Cross 3rd class .............. bad thoughts, but not impossible .............

4th class with crown (Wagner) in its original case.
Has the 3rd class with swords in post #2 a makers mark ? Is does not look like an awarded piece. The golden border is too wide, the swors are not prussian ..... ?

I am searching for any informations about the decorations awarded to Parson Ferdinand Dahms of the Berlin St.Georg-Church. He was awarded the Kronen-Orden 3rd Class in 1885 and died in 1891.
So please, if anyone has a prussian roll of decorations - Ordensliste before 1891 - would you have a look for him ?
Thanks and regards

Very nice bars ! Thanks for showing.
The suspension ring on the MEZ may be original, a very early version. Can you recognize two lines like those on the pic on the outer edge of the ring ?

They are shurly not Hapag. The Hamburg-Amerika-Linie had uniform-regulations which were very close to those of the former imperial navy until 1945.
So the golden stripes on the shoulder-boards and also on the sleeves have had for all non-nautical officers a coloured underlay. Engineers from black velvet, medicals from cornflower blue velvet and so on. The coller of the blue jackets were covered with the same material and colour.
And, of cause, the buttons show always the HAPAG-shield on an anchor.

..and a sailor from S.M.S. EMDEN, pic taken in Konstantinopel after returning. He has already received the Iron Cross 2nd class, the Liakat-medal in silver with swords and the Gallipoli Star. The tally is 100% with golden letters, silver would be much more shining like the white stripes on his collar.
It is Obermatrose Wilhelm S?ss.

Hello Alex,
please compare the crowns. The pics could be better, but i think you can see the differences. The outer shape is different, the cross on top left is llarger and cut-out. The pearls in the bottom row left have all the same size, right they get smaller from center to the sides, so it looks more 3-dimensional. The edges of the cross on the right side are correctly silver, the cross on the the left side has been completely gilted. So we have here two pieces strucked from two different tools. As Mike said, the cross on right side matches the tool of the Berliner M?nze, today stored in the Bode-Museum in Berlin
