Hello ! I give you this adress about french colonial's medal and "Outre-Mer" medal (it's the same article): http://www.france-phaleristique.com/accueil.htm Maybe you don't know it... It's an excellent web site about french decorations and orders, but in french... But, you will find a lot of informations ! Greetings Jean-Baptiste

Yes, I think so ! In this case, ribbons are perfect and there's a nice patina ! Very nice bar !

Thank you Kapitular ! I'm very interrested by photo's of the "Anna-Luise Ehrenzeichen" and of "Anerkennungsmedaille" (the silver and the bronze !). Because nobody seems have theses items, I think it will interrest a lot of persons here ! Greetings ! Jean-Baptiste (PS : Can you scan the two sides of each medals ? Thank you again !)

Thank you for informations ! I'll try to found these books. I have a new question and challenge about Schwarzburg : the "Anna-Luise Verdienstzeichen" (OEK 2834) : created on 1918, february 19th. Only 215 medals awarded (!)... I've seen a (bad) photo on thies catalog, but I can't read the exergue's text on obverse... (VERDIENST ... .......... ?) Can someone tell me ? And I have never seen the backside of this medal. Does someone possess this rare medal ?? Can you post a photo of the backside ? or describe it ? Thank you ! Jean-Baptiste

Beautiful piece !

My contribution (very modest) Greetings, Jean-Baptiste

Very nice bar ! Thank you for this wonderful thing !

Beautiful Stars !!! Not only rare, but exceptional orders ! Were do you have seen them ? Greetings, Jean-Baptiste

Thank you for your help ! I possess a silver merit cross and a gold merit cross (the 2 crosses are without crown)... The silver cross is stamped "938 H" on the medallion's border, between the left and the bottom arms. So, a 1912-1917 model, in silver, according to J. Nimmergut OEK. The gold cross isn't stamped. (Weight : 11,7 g. Golden war metal or bronze ? I don't know...) Does someone have any (good) illustration of the cross with crown ? Thank you again ! Jean-Baptiste

Hello ! Does someone know the creation's date of the prussia merit cross (gold or silver) : OEK N.1849 to 1853, "Preussen Verdienstkreuz in Gold/in Silber" I only found that it has been created in 1912, but I don't have found the exact date... Thank you gentlemens !
