Could it be an 1849-1849 Austrian large golden bravery medal and an Austrian service cross for 40 years?
-
Absolutely beautiful! I can’t even compete, this has already been shown here at least twice, the second one, practically common place now:
-
Here’s a very interesting non-combatants-combatants bar that just sold for what I think is a really reasonable price:
-
Ah, that’s too bad, but needless to say, even with this being the case, the ribbon still compliments it’s nicely. I love the nice dark original patina!
-
Such a great piece and with the original ribbon to boot! The pictures are great but I know it’s always better when you have it in your hands! Congratulations!
-
Nice Rick! What a great Christmas gift!

I remember seeing a post about this a while ago and let me just say how extremely impressive this is! This is probably the rarest set of awards I’ve ever seen! To have 1 of only 4 awarded in the Netherlands! Amazing! Congratulations! best, Dan

I’m glad you got the chance to see this! It seems my initial thought was right, it’s still a very nice combination! Very nice house order with swords! And I may have said it before but I love the cased FAK1 Vince! Although it’s not an award, I thought it may be fitting to share this here: best regards Dan

Gianni, This looks wonderful! Having these awards on it really makes such a difference! Congratulations on such a great find!

very nice collection! Single bars are always great pieces! It seems to me that the medal the bar where removed, polished and cleaned and then returned to the ribbon, look at the holes above the bar and the threads above the medal eyelet, but this is just a hunch
-
It’s really a very very nice bar! Such bars are really an extreme rarity! Im really impressed!

If it is an Oldenburg long service cross or medal, probably the later, which after more thought, it most likely is, it’s a gendarmerie medal bar. In all likelihood the first award is the FAK. Here’s a couple of examples:

Just saw this up on eBay and wanted to see what your thoughts on it where on it:
-
Very nice bar! I would say that no.2 would be a non combatants Friedrich August Kreuz, especially when you consider the KVK right next to it. Congratulations on such a great find!
-
Would you happen to be able to provide the weight of the cross?
