    1. I'd like to elaborate this answer : According to Dr Kliethmann The cross with swords is awarded for combattant. The cross without swords and with "Kriegsverdienst" inscription on back side is the cross for "Verdienste im Kriege in der Heimat" (War merit toward homeland) The cross without swords and without any inscription on the back side is known as cross "f?r sonstige Verdienste " (for general merit)
    2. And finaly, a small classic bar : 1/ Iron cross 2nd class, on combattant ribbon 2/ Silver bravery medal 3/ Honor cross 1914/18
    3. Gold Bravery medal, post war issued, in silver golded (stamped "800" on the ring)
    4. Auction has been closed... 0 buyer I hope the bar will not be destroyed !
    5. Hello ! I have also one wurtemberg gold bravey medal. Are they all marked "333", or this mark is only for the last type ? (weight of the medal : 13,7g) Mine is mark "800" on the ring ! So, a fake ? An older model ?? I will try to take a photo as soon as possible ! Thank you gentlemen's !
    6. Hello gentlemen's ! I have a strange unofficial ribbon on my silver Carl-Eduard medal : SEHO and Iron cross ribbons mixed on the same ribbon ! Swords and bar 1914/7...
    7. Thank you ! But I have doubt about originality of this ribbon : He looks too clean for me... Maybe a replacement ribbon... (I will try to exhibit it on black light, as sonn as I can !)

    9. What beautifuls awards !!! I have more modest cross : war merit cross for women, 1917-1918
    10. Thank you ! Some explanations : This medal has been created on 1915, 15th August by Wilhelm-Ernst of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach (1901-1918). Awarded to womens who have served the State during the first Worl War. On the observe, we can see profiles of F?odora von Sachsen-Meiningen, wife of Grand-Duke Wilhelm-Ernst, and Maria Pavlowna Romanova, Grand-Duchess of Russia, and wife of Grand-Duke of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach Friedrich-Karl (1828-1853). In exergue, it's written ? FEODORA MCMXV MARIA PAVLOWNA MDCCCXV GROSSHERZOGINNEN V. SACHSEN ? (? FEODORA 1915 MARIA PAVLOWNA 1815 GRANDS-DUCHESS OF SAXONY ?). On the backside, we can see entwined letters ? FWE ? (? FEODORA ? and ? WILHELM ERNST ?), surpassed by the crown of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach. In exergue ? FRAUEN VERDIENST IM KRIEGE ? (? WOMENS MERIT IN WARTIME ?). The date of birth of the medal is also noted : ? XV AUGUST MCMXV ? (? 1915, AUGUST 15th ?). Best wishes (and I hope my english is not too bad...)
