D'oh, I didn't even see this one. Fantastic.
-
Please specify what is garbage and who is a crook.
-
Anyone know if that banged up PLM is from the O'Connor Jacobs grouping or just a random one?
-
Yup, that's the grouping I mentioned.
-
To the crusher with this garbage. The case looks like something from The Blue Max.
-
Interesting group. Is the crown hinged? The Griffon Order with crown is of course scarcer than the Knight's Cross, as it constitutes a higher grade of the order. We need one of our Mecklenburg experts to chime in, but it looks like a good WW1 period piece to me.
-
Yes, that is a typical Steinhauer piece. And without a close-up it will be impossible to ID that Verdienst-Medaille.
-
No kidding, bedauerlich the way real heroes are treated in Germany.
-
The second to last is a Reuss Honour Cross 3rd Class. I think you're right about the last medal. The medal between the EK1 and Baltenkreuz looks like a Merit Medal of Sachsen-Coburg-Gotha or one of the Duchies, with the sword clasp. BTW i noticed recently that an award doc for the PLM allegedly to Jacobs is being offered on fleabay, signed by von Kanitz, along with other items, including a banged up PLM.

Fantastic!
-
Thanks for your efforts in this thread. I must say that I find this new level of fakery extremely demoralising.
-
Interesting to see Kemnade in that photo.
-
It isn't necessary to blot out swastikas on this forum.
-
Ach du Lieber, that is horrible.
-
Member Jaba might have something, as naval aviators are his specialty. Hubrich is always on my radar, as he actively flew in both conflicts, like my uncle.
-
Looks fine to me as well, and fortunately has the iron suspension clip still attached. My examples look as though they were dug out of graves, which apparently is a possibility.
-
Looks like a Spangenstueck, and the ribbon, if genuine, would be more valuable than the medal.
-
Does anyone have a complete list of the participants?
-
Yup, more colourful garbage from the Schraegstich Faker.
-
Very interesting Nachlass, especially with the Finnish Pilot Badge.
-
I like it, you don't often see the Langensalza medal on a Kette.
-
Interesting medal bar, what is the missing medal?
-
Again, varying quality on this batch, but some of these pieces are getting pretty scary.
-
No kidding, can we see the back of it? The bar should be ID'd, or?
-
Nice one, is that a Red Cross or Volkspflege award at the end?
