1812 Overture

Have you considered the feelings of the poor?I only have one order for Albert, he is a peculiar version,

Dear friend, I think the order of Albert is very cumbersome. There are double swords, no double swords, garlands, no garlands, crowns, no crowns. . Oh my god!Also, congratulations on receiving your new “baby”

Thank you, dear friend. I am also an Austrian military enthusiast.

Many years ago, I saw the news of the death of the Emperor Otto in Austria-Hungary, Austria, in 2011. There was a photo at the time. I was curious about who was next to them? Replaying lovers?

？？？

Dear Tony, I didn't expect you to speak in this post. I think I need to help you eliminate the "zero reply." It seems that I need a "photo bomber" to bomb it. Don't be too cold!

In addition, I have seen the green color of this shooting rope. What is it?

This is a bit of fascinating historical architecture from old Tsingtau.  I had no idea that this building was there. 

Where exactly in Qingdao is this building located?  Is it in the old portion of the city? 

Yes, I don't know how to distinguish now. One hundred years ago, it belonged to the old district. Now it belongs to the new district because it is being developed.

Through a bridge, the bridge built in Germany was pressed under the new bridge, bypassing a small lake and coming to the valley. There is an ancient Taoist temple.

Destroyed after 1960

Ginkgo trees over 500 years old, and now have fruit

There is spring water in the back ditch, which is similar to the spring water in Baden-Württemberg. .

On the wall, the Chinese meaning "If you plan to wash your clothes here, please leave the water 10 meters away to avoid polluting the water source."

Waiting for a reply. End。PS：

Maybe you can provide more old photos to me? The interior of the house belongs to the welfare home, and I can't get in. A reporter had previously contacted a professor of “Mavili” in Germany who had been here during his childhood.

Dear friends, in August, after many searches, I finally found out that in 1936, the German merchants raised the resort in Qingdao, the “Bai Mai House” (named after the most funded person). Here are some of my descriptions. I hope everyone likes it (although I know people here don't usually like to reply)

Here is the main entrance, guarded by a fierce old man.

There is a secret passage here, usually a dog guard, but I didn't see it on the day I went, otherwise I would have seen God.

a bit like a horror movie house

These are the photos I took in August. At that time, the sky was dark and there were so many mosquitoes, so I was not exploring. Next I will send the photo taken yesterday.

The construction workers told me that this building will not be demolished here. We must know that China’s protection of buildings is poor.

1936~1942？.。。。。

2008.。。。。

just now. . . You can't find the trail of the swimming pool!

Quietly from here, please be quiet!

I came to the third floor and pretended to be in Stalingrad.

LOOK！

Due to the obscuration of trees, Nazi signs were rarely found, so they were preserved in many sports in China. But after the building is built, it is hard to say. . .

But what I don't understand is that there is no eagle.

I like this medal very much, but the medals of the Korean Empire are usually very expensive and I can't afford it. I gave you a reference price of about $950 for this medal.

PS

is this the container for the sash in the picture?

 

i have one too... but no container!

tony

It's a container, but it's not original! But this paper box has a history of about a hundred years, and it is very broken. These days, I will send him the picture that Mr. Gordon wants to see. Thank you for your love

Don't you have his color photos?

At that time the Chief Police Officers in charge of the Municipal Police Forces in the Treaty Ports on the China Coast and the Colonial Force in Hong Kong ,bore the title Captain Superintendent.Hence CAPT SUPT.

I can find no reference to " Barrett-Watts" on the China Coast at that time,detailed research into the Tientsin community at that time should reveal more.

CRP could be Chinese Railway Police ?

The display of the Tianjin Museum in China, interestingly, is next to the St. Stanislav Medal of the Russian Empire.

Dear Friends,

interesting reading, even after 5 years, since I just obtained one of these and doing some research.
The German designation for this medal is "Silver Military Merit Medal for Foreigners" ( silberne Militär-Verdienstmedaille für Ausländer ).
Is the year on my medal 1320? I'm not so good with arabic numerals...

regards
Arne

 

Why is the front and back of your medal opposite? According to one of my Ottoman Imdias medals, the above figure in Arabic means 1333, which is the Gregorian calendar in 1914, so you can follow this calculation. But I feel that this one of you is in the period of the Pahlavi Dynasty, pay attention to the crown.

Dear friend: Congratulations on your new collection. According to the information in my hands, the Belgian Leopold II Medal Officer has obtained the standard of serving in the military for more than 23 years and has performed well. The lowest rank is Lieutenant. I don't know other medals, but this is a modern combination, beautiful

I think my ending is probably the same as the poor old man.

The Belgium Medal makers have produced excellent quality Orders over the years, especially at the early period from 1832 till 1900. For some reasons few Orders have been made by French makers since the very beginning

Here is my French Connection in my Belgium Order of Leopold Collection

1. 1/2 Size Knight with French mark -"rabbit" for Silver prior to 1839

2 Officer in 18 carat Gold with French "eagle head" mark

3. Officer in Silver Gild with French "boar head" mark for Silver and Maker Mark "VL"

4 Commander with French import mark "Ar950" for Silver  and maker mark "AB"

5. Knight -not marked, however when compared with the Commander it is obvious that it could be the same maker

The commander level is really beautiful! congratulations

This is the shop of my best friend. Obviously, he only sells five hundred yuan. I seem to be the seller of Albania from the picture quality of your picture. What can I help you with? In addition, there are indeed different loops, and I also have deep questions about this, such as:

This is the 50th anniversary of the reign of Friedrich I of Baden-Württemberg in 1902. In my opinion, there are also different links. Here, I also ask the gentlemen who know this reason?

Let me allow to share my little piece of a non-combat frack bar.

I'm wondering if there will be any identification possible...?

No wonder you didn’t see Chris, you bought a new “toy”.
