OK, the reason I ask is that aluminum examples do exist, as on this bar.
-
This guy would have had to have been either a vet of or on active service with a German unit in 1897 to qualify. You're right that this group is unusual, it's much more common to find German groups with Dutch decorations rather than the other way around.
-
Don, are those TKM's made of silver or aluminum? The first one looks like a cast for sure.
-
I've also been watching that stupid big bar, classic Austrian faker material. And look at the number of bids.
-
I think it was originally red and white.

EK2 1870 need some help

That is a crazy number. I would value this set at no more than 700. euro. -
Fantastic to see both Schnallen variants from the same guy, echt Spitze.
-
I dragged out these docs, and it looks like another Hahn, this time Gustav Adolf Louis, I had him confused with one of the other Hahns. Too many roosters in the proverbial hen house!

If the price is right..... -
That is a very impressive Nachlass Claudio. It is quite heavy on the 'third Program', which surprises me coming from you.
-
That is a beauty Claudio, congratulations. I also think that combo is unique, probably to a field grade officer of at least Major rank, if not Oberstleutnant\Oberst.

I like it, looks like a good award-type example. -
Looks like a KVK. I'm assuming this guy is related to the aforementioned von Hahn?
-
True, but he's also wearing a Kyffhaeuser-Medaille on his Schnalle, so I would date this photo to around 1933.
-
Hamburg Feld-Ehrenzeichen?
-
That's him, I have a bunch of docs that came out of this guy's estate.
-
It looks like the Spangenblech was altered some time ago, it looks period to me.
-
Thanks Dave, I ask because I have ancestors who were closely associated with both brothers.
-
How is this guy related to the famous Gebrueder Humboldt?
-
I had no idea I spoke Russian!
-
Very nice Kette, but the lack of a German order is going to make that a difficult one.
-
I thought Apenrade was in Denmark?
-
This is an Imperial forum.
-
Great photo, not often you see the Marine-Fliegererinnerungsabzeichen in wear.
-
I agree with Alex, very nice with the NSFK-Ballonabzeichen. He also has quite the Schmiss-collection.
