According to my copy of Die bayerischen Orden by Schreiber that is the silver medal for industry, which shares the same obverse as the medal for arts and sciences. Total number of awards is 45, so quite rare, but certainly doesn't justify this insane price.

They're really cranking out the Saxon cases these days.....

Swastika doesn't look right to me. -
The Most 1939 Iron Crosses In One Place.

Sounds more like a Ukrainian scam to me. -
Tres bien. I wonder how many different combinations exist?
-
Hmmm, that is a weird one Rick, quality seems rock bottom.
-
You're right, you have to be extremely careful with this award, our 'Belgian friends' are producing exact copies these days. I like the looks of that one.
-
Anyone else got some of these?
-
Rick, here is another fake Saxon case. And another product from our Schraegstich friend. For comparison I'm including a couple of shots of a real Reuss Arts and Sciences Cross. These are rare.
-
I can think of a few western leaders who should be thus immortalised.
-
Yup, I think the mini is also fake.
-
LOL, actually it's 'Das', not 'Der'.
-
People on German fleabay are going nuts over this pile of crap.
-
Here is some material from Major Jordan.
-
Actually nice, that's a marked example.
-
Boy, those are some hefty numbers. I thought the Knauer box was only for the first class FA cross?

Frohe Weihnachten, and kalla Christougena.

The story of Goering's Grosskreuz is pretty interesting.
-
Thanks Lew, probably the best thing about it is the c. 1900 ribbon it came with.
-
A 'nice pair' Komtur.
-
I could cast a better copy in my garage, what absolute garbage.
-
Me neither, at around 25 awarded it is by far the rarest item in my collection.
-
I agree, that is a rare one.
-
Me too, as a space filler I would value this set at around 50 bucks.
-
True, and most of the minis are fake as well. Here is as close as I'll get.
