My guess would be Russia. It is definitly not from Scandinavia.

It’s not polish at all. it is from Belgium. The Political Prisoner's Cross 1940-1945.

Of course it must be the Austrian Red Cross! I can't believe I didn't think of that! 😐 The button is maker marked for Boullanger Paris France. It's quite usual that Swedish boutons are made in France, I have some others in my collection. The bouton have what I think the following ribbons: Yellow ribbon Pale blue ribbon - Swedish jubilee medal? Red ribbon - Legion de Honor? White/red ribbon on outside - Austrian red cross? Dark blue ribbon on outside - Finnish White Rose? I first thought that the yellow ribbon was the Swedish order of the sword. But it looks like all-yellow.

Hello! Does anyone recognize the ribbon on this bouton / ordens-button? I suspect that it might come from one of the nordic countries but I might be wrong.

Yes! It could definitly be that ribbon! Thanks Mike!

Hello! Does anyone recognize this ribbon? Its pale blue at the edges and yellow center. It MIGHT be from Thailand or some other Asian country. The ribbon next to it is the Order of the Crown from Thailand.

Here is a pretty boring miniaturebar from Northern Sweden. Norrbottens Landstorm and Skytteförbund. Here is a more unusual chain with different Swedish athlete-badges. Both shooting, skiing and swimming. Unfortunately one badge is missing.

The cross looks fine! I seriously doubt that anyone would fake these crosses since they are common and usually quite cheap. But if it was the version with swords I would be careful since those are very rare.
