    1. And here is a photo of Major Zethelius He was Maj iR 1926 and he also got KSO and KVO (Sword order and Vasa Order)
    2. Quite unusual with only 140 awarded in 1918 This on awarded to the Swedish Major Fredrik Otto Zethelius for his work with horses in Tammerfors 1918
    3. Another one without id , on the back on one medal it says E.T But that the only clue ....
    4. My latest in the collection, one is Deschler and the other Leser ( I think) Chy
    5. This seems to be a non fighter, with seven awards . I suppose the Mecklenburg could be of the nf variant , but still impossible to trace I guess... Anyone know what regiment the last medal is for ?
    6. Hi , just got this one , a Liberty Cross 4th class wo swords 1939 ? medal for Winter War 39/40 , medal for war 41/44 , Austrian Decoration of honour in Gold, French Legion of Honour Officer, Sweden North Star Commander. I tried to find the guy through the Northern Star Commander Order , I have the names of 78 Finnish recipients , but no match so far The search goes on
    7. Here is a new miniature chain , a noncombattant in 1864 war but fought in 1870/71 war and then a 1897 medal. What do you think is missing ? Some award from another country 🤔
    8. This is an quite interesting chain of miniatures , First he was in The Independence War 1918 , i guess not as an officer because no Liberty Cross , But Medal 2nd class 1918 and commerative medal with Rose and two battle bars He also has the Helsinki commerative Medal 1918-1938 so probably he was in the fight for the Capital. He joined the Civil Guard and got the Merit Medal , he also has the Blue Cross with Bar 1917-1918 fpr servid during the war. Then he got the com medal for the Winter War 1939-1940 so in some way he was in this war too. But last but not least he was in the 8th Division during the continuation war 1941-1944 , he also got the Pro Benignitate Humana , about 4500 medals was given to foreigners for helping Finland during the 1941-45 wars, but only about 800 to Finnish people. I wonder who he was , to bad he is not possible to identify ....
