Thanks for all your help. Regards Demir

Thanks, but there is a date on it: 1861 instead of MERENTI. The Bavarian Military Merit Order (Militär-Verdienstorden) was established on July 19, 186.

Hello, Will you please help me to identify these two orders laying on top of the Turkish Mecidi Sash. I think the top one is: der Königlicher Kronen-Orden mit Schwertern- the Royal Order of the Crown with swords. Is it possible that the second one is the order of this breast star? What about the white ribbon with blue and black lines, Does it belong to the order? Thanks for your help Demir

Ribbon bar with Magnetic EKII and Turkish War Medal ribbon with IRAK Campaign Clasp. The clasp is smaller in size than those seen.

Thanks for the remarks. I bought them when I was visiting Germany several years ago. I don't remember how much I paid but I think not so much. I also have these two magnetic EKIIs on ribbon bars. The first set is with Ehrenkreuz des Weltkrieges 1914-18 (KM&F), Turkish Liyakat and Glory/Industry Medal Regards Demir

EKII 1914 Magnetic (b) EKII 1914 (c)

Thanks Brett, It is very helpful and explains a lot. Best wishes Demir

Hello Brett, Maybe. There is no medal especially for Korea. Somebody selling the same item now is saying: 'Chinese Military Oppose America Memorial Medal' and there is another medal (below) on sale as:'Chinese PLA Korea War Medal' the sam medal is also called: "Medal for Anti America and Support of Korea 1951" in another website. I have to find somebody to read them. Regards

I bought this Korean War Chinese medal recently
