Comments welcomed on this one. Pin replaced with a screw-disc attachment and post device behind cross of crown.
-
Not the greatest pictures, but from what I see it looks like a genuine award piece.
-
Aha, that's where that one wound up, I was after it as well.
-
Those are very nice NK-Schnallen, I especially like the first two.
-
Very nice bar, I love anything with an HOH on it.
-
I agree, a nice piece. Of course an award piece would be significant money.
-
Wow, is that an RAO4mS am NKB?
-
Nice pieces, I wish I had one to show. Still on my 'want' list.
-
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has such fantasies.
-
Great stuff, Claudio. I really like the von Epp Max Josef, interesting that it was gifted by Neal O'Connor. As for marches, you can't beat the Radetsky, my grandfather's favorite.
-
Danke Dir, Claudio, those are absolutely fantastic.
-
It is a relatively scarce award, and sought after on medal bars, but they don't command the sort of money you'd expect. Still a nice piece.
-
Here is Onkel Fritz being attacked by the Maikaefers.
-
Thanks for clarifying, Claudio. I have a picture of Wilhelm wearing this Schnalle, and that makes sense.
-
Hey, the Maikaefer figures prominently in a certain Wilhelm Busch comic, I'll have to find it.
-
Great Schnalle, Claudio, I love these ones with the Chilean stuff.
-
Ach du Lieber, I've heard of this collection, but hadn't seen pics. That mini-spange is incredible, and that PLM from 1866.....
-
I agree, looks very good to me. These were awarded to members of the Fliegertruppe who had served at least three years in the air force.
-
Looks like good quality, better than the average Spangenstueck. Are there any markings on the edge of the bottom cross arm?
-
Sorry about that, here are his details: Paul Ludwig Weller, born 10.7.1868 in Koenigsberg, died 31.5.1932 in Schloss Metgethen.
-
My great grandfather, Paul Weller, was a well-known philanthropist in Koenigsberg, East Prussia, and was awarded the Freeman of the City and an honorary doctorate from the Albertinum University as well. I think he must have received some bling from the Kaiser, but have no idea what awards he got. Any help would be appreciated. Officially he was a Rittergutsbesitzer.
-
Now that is an incredible medal bar.
-
Wow, outstanding bar, never seen one with the RAOM on a different ribbon.
-
Very nice cross, and not common with the dates. I have a commander's cross without dates.
-
Very nice medal bar Dete, I love the Phillipsorden and am looking for a Schnalle with one with swords. So far I only have one without swords on a bar, also identified by the redoubtable research gnome.
