      Highlights appear to have been polished?
    2. VtwinVince
      That is a cool one, with multiple orders, and from Godet. What's not to like?
    3. VtwinVince
      Wow, that is a fantastic Kette.
    4. VtwinVince
      Love those shots of Chevallerie, your classic, old-school Prussian General.

      Only in England do such inbred types get all their expenses paid on the public dime.

      That's a very cool bar. I don't think 11 is the English Jubilee, otherwise he would have gotten the Centennar Medal.
    7. VtwinVince
      Very nice, and a scarce case.
    8. VtwinVince
      Indeed, very low award numbers for both those decoration options. Super Feldschnalle.
    9. VtwinVince
      Now that is a fantastic piece.
    10. VtwinVince
      Very nice NK bar, and a fairly obscure combo.

      Beautiful Schnalle, and not so common with the AH FJ.

      My books are in storage right now, but I'm sure I read about a St. Heinrich Sonderstufe somewhere.
    13. VtwinVince
      The Saxon kings wore a 'Sonderstufe' of the order, or special class. I think Goering got his SEHO by strong-arming the old Duke in the 1930's.

      I have a book entitled 'Bismarck Denkmal fuer das deutsche Volk' which has many shots of his awards. Unfortunately it is packed away in storage. I'd like to know how he got the Rettungsmedaille.
    15. VtwinVince
      I'd like to see the Iron Chancellor try and wear everything at once.
    16. VtwinVince
      He's right, there are subtle differences between the two.
    17. VtwinVince
      Don't show that one to Roman!
    18. VtwinVince
      Jesus, that is crazy money for a Feldschnalle. I thought I was nuts paying 200.00 USD for a Trapetz with devices for the Crown and Schleife to the RAO.
    19. VtwinVince
      What did it sell for?
    20. VtwinVince
      Huebsche Zwillinge, zeig bitte die ganze Schnalle.
    21. VtwinVince
      It's true. My uncle fought for years in the west and the east, and was nominated for the EK1 several times. It took until he was promoted in the field to Leutnant in the summer of 1918 before he finally got it. I have a letter from his regimental CO to my great grandfather, apologising for his not getting the EK1 in spite of the CO's best efforts!

      There was, I believe, only one manufacturer of the third class, and the flames were separately attached.
    23. VtwinVince
      Thanks, it's a pretty convincing dog's breakfast.
    24. VtwinVince
      I also love that two placer, what a beauty.
    25. VtwinVince
      That's a weird one for sure. Could we see the obverse of the Schnalle?
