    1. Preface: For the first time, I published a new article in this section. I mainly collected the order and medals of Germany and Austro-Hungarian Empire. These British medals were collected unintentionally and not intentionally. The following is a group photo of my British medal → A few days ago, I received the bronze medal of Queen Victoria's 50-year accession to the throne. Does anyone tell me whether the box is original? And the number of women? In fact, I want to collect the version for men, but I received two bows for women (received several times), although the number of them was less. PS If I break the bow and change it into a man's appearance, is that history?
    2. This is my early level 1 bravery medal (next to PS seems to be Saxony's bravery. I forgot to buy it at a very low price)
    3. Hi, my friend, Merry Christmas! I would like to ask you if the Carl 1 level bravery medal can be awarded to Germans? I have only seen the example of level 2 or copper in German medals @Christian1962
    4. I have seen the academic medal of Belgium Palm.. Does this person look Belgian, too? PS Why do their eyes look in different directions...
    5. Eh.. Gentlemen, in fact, I mainly want to know whether the medal of 40 years of service in Bavaria Fire Service can be worn alone?
    6. Collectors, I recently browsed a group of bars with 40 year service medals of Bavarian firefighters, but I thought it was a little strange. Generally speaking, the fire medals I saw appeared together with 25 and 40, or the combination of Bavarian Kingdom Service Medals and 25 year Service Medals. This is the first time I saw a single medal. Does this medal meet the "standard"? Besides, what's the last medal? It seems to be related to agriculture. Please give your opinion! thank you
    7. I like the order of Belgian royal lions! It is very beautiful, but the breast star rarely appears.. At the same time, I think its acquisition standard is similar to the Leopold II order? Or crown order? I have seen in the old photos that the Chinese have obtained the royal lion order I like the order of Belgian royal lions! It is very beautiful, but the breast star rarely appears..

    8. Dear collectors, I recently purchased a medal for the 25th anniversary of the Austro-Hungarian firefighting, but I can find very little information, and I can't find any relevant discussions in the forum. So far I can only find a picture of the medal wearing it, does anyone have pictures of other winners? Also, are firefighters in the Austro-Hungarian Empire civil servants? The actual winner is an old grandpa who doesn't look too happy
    9. Gentlemen, I bought this combo last year on a second-hand trade site in China. During the Prussian-French War. oh! It looks in great condition! Like it was just made. The seller did not understand, he said it was from Prussia, but I knew it was from the Grand Duchy of Hesse. Just does anyone know what is written on the little piece of paper? I seem to ask a friend on the forum, but again I forgot. . . I waited about half a year for it to be delivered to me! The securing ribbon was supposed to be intact, but apparently it broke during shipping. . . The following is a comparison of the ambulance cross medals during World War I, which look like grandpa and grandson The civil medal cross, issued to women, should be relatively rare. thanks for watching! @JohanH、@Graf、@Vit67
    10. The words on the front and back are different. . But there are still many people who are deceived
    11. I showed Mr Sacha, I have such a weird Baden medal, the front Friedrich character looks weird
    12. This is my latest new favorite! Looks super fun, no injury medals, and not a triangle
    13. Ich habe dieses Foto letzten Monat an einer Börse in Tiaosao in China gekauft. Mein Freund sagte mir, dass dies ein Schauspieler aus dem Herzogtum Mecklenburg sei, und tatsächlich trage er den Franz-II-Orden auf Kommandantenebene, der seltener aussieht und den Orden des Russischen Reiches (wie den olympischen Orden) etwas ähnlich sieht. Kann mir jemand das Lebens- und Todesdatum dieses Schauspielers und seine nachfolgenden Auszeichnungen nennen? Also, I know one line of letters is his signature, so what does the other line mean?
    14. yes sir demir, the turkish made medals with perforations directly on the medals seriously spoils the aesthetics of the medals, I think it's because of their technology? My medals are three millimeters thick
    15. Hello fellow collectors! I bought a Liyakat medal from the Ottoman Empire a few years ago, and today I found it had an imprint "925" on the ring, is it made in Germany? Its top doesn't look like other Liyakat. Any help would be greatly appreciated! PS: Also, can anyone tell me what the Islamic text on the back means?
    16. Also, I want to ask you another question. Regarding the "War Welfare Medal" of the Grand Duchy of Hesse, I found through the pictures that sometimes its ribbon color is red, sometimes it is pink, so which color is the correct color? I recently purchased one The above two pictures are quoted from the collections of other members of the forum
    17. Does any gentleman know this Bavarian medal? Is it fictional? I only found the Bavarian Hungarian Infantry Regiment Founding Medal, which looks similar to it. .
