Finally the case

And the reverse

Hi here's my piece made by J Godet & Sohne Berlin, unfortunately the enamel is quite damaged, would it be worth having it repaired?, comes with a red case also regards Alex

Thanks for that, a very interesting piece of history regards Alex

I guess I'd better keep away from any 16th Century Knights for a couple of weeks!!!! BTW who was he? regards

Thanks regards Alex

thanks buellmeister, what period are we talking about? post 1918? if so i don't mind removing the oaks from my EK11 and looking for something more appropriate regards

I agree its all a bit of a mess!!

Hi Buellmeister interesting photo, yours is in better condition then mine!!, I can assume that it has nothing to do with the EK11, What sort of decoration would it have been attached to? regards

and the reverse

hi kevin attached as requested all the best regards

Hi attached is my EK11 1870, made by Wagner. Attached to it are these strange 25th anniversary oakleaves. These are completely different from the normal ones. Does anyone know if these are a different type or a totally spurious attachment? the oakleaves do appear to contemporary and made by a manufacturer who made medals of the period. purely for display purposes, they are attached to a newer piece of ribbon, the original is however shown. any help appreciated thanks Alex

Beautiful pieces DutchBoy

BTW sorry for spelling your name wrong Hunyadi! regards

Thanks for the info, particularly on the stampings and maker regards Alex

Hi Hunyady, the medal and ribbon came together when I bought the piece in 1987 ?14 UKP regards I assume they belonged together

Hi guys thanks for the quick respnses, I must admit that I believed it to be a copy due to the zinc (Non silver) manufacture, I have not seen a silver version of this so far. I will keep an eye open. It is pleasant to note that there is so much knowledge out there that can help the unwary/new guy who sees something they like and buys it on the spur of the moment, hoping its a regular piece thanks regards alex

kevin just for clarification, should I be looking for this ribbon but with the KD swords attached thanks

Kevin attached regards Alex

asking the experts again, what this is, I think my copy is a cheap fake, the edges have file marks, even though I suspect the ribbon might be contemporary thanks

Any experts identify what the stamps mean on my Signum Laudis?

hi sorry for sticking my nose in this thread, but would this be the wartime ribbon for the Signum Laudis? regards

Hi all, I have in my collection the following MVK with KD. It all came like this. I have however noticed the MVK with a different ribbon, is this the correct ribbon for this award with the KD attachment. The case does say KD although the lettering is quite faded. any help appreciated regards Alex
