Dennis, it's the German website, Sammlergemeinschaft deutscher Auszeichnungen.
-
Coincidentally, a Kette has just been shown over at SDA with a genuine PLM mini on it.
-
And the back.
-
Sorry, it's actually a China bar, but here it is anyway.
-
We don't exactly see a lot of genuine PLM minis, so expertise may be lacking. I know I'm not conversant with these. Judging the chain on its' own merits, the combo does seem a little odd, as the Germans generally wore all their decorations on a chain, since they were light, unlike on a regular Schnalle.
-
Thanks, that is a real stunner.
-
Great feldspange, and great detective work, as usual.
-
Very nice Schnalle. I have a BMVO3mK if you are interested, but it is a Spangenstueck, not an award piece.
-
I have a colonial bar with FAM, but will have to retrieve it in order to make scans.
-
It's an interesting bar, and something I would definitely restore.
-
So, it's not possible to see close-ups of the PLM?
-
And the back. You can see where the sabers were once attached.
-
Here you go.
-
I have one on a medal bar, from the 1870 period, but the medal has the later Oese, although there is no evidence of the medal being swapped out. Unfortunately, the sabers are missing from the ribbon.
-
Looks like a very nice original.
-
I think it is a fake, probably something from the 'Raeritaetensammlerclub', no doubt.
-
That is quite the kettchen. Could you post close-ups of the PLM please?
-
Nice one, Trevor.
-
Aha, so mystery solved, and that is a great Ehrenbecher, Joe.
-
Nice feldspange, Christophe. As Matthew said, what about the third being an Albrechtkreuz with swords?
-
Don't forget my old friend, Guenther Bahr.
-
Very interesting and unusual combination, hard to say exactly what this guy was doing, as the Baden and Prussia awards could have been given to someone in a number of different functions.
-
I saw this bar on ebay, and was immediately suspicious. Too many red flags for me.
-
Thanks for the images, Dean. It looks like an excellent bar to me, with an unusual combination.
-
Looks like the EK2 is one of the later Jubilee variety, not so commonly seen on bars. If you could post a scan of the reverse of the 50 device, that would be great.
