An Erinnerungsmedaille des IX. Armeekorps, 1866-1918? -
Hi Uwe, I found this over at Kai Winkler, I actually have an identical example, but without ribbon, (I always wondered what sort of ribbon went on my shooting medal, I've had it for years), and it wasn't until you told me that the shooting clubs use green and white ribbon that I started to look out for it. I have learnt something else, thanks

Thank you Schmidt! -
Hello gents, I haven't seen one of these before, does anyone know what it is called? I'm not sure which is the front or the back, I'm guessing the IX is the rear? Would that indicate 9 years membership? Could anyone tell me what the dates 1866-1918 would indicate? Thanks!

Thank you Uwe and Zorg for your thoughts. I thought it was Saxe-Coburg-Gotha because of the colours and the maker was from Coburg. Would shooting clubs have used the term 25 years loyal membership Uwe? I am no expert by any means, but that does sound like a veterans type term. I have that on a few of my veterans membership badges.
