Hello Here s shot I can make out with a loop pulling up on repeat bar John wagner and sons berlin 800 and or something like that maybe a W !maybe a crown and something else I tried to get it off ribbon but starting to rip ribbon if was for sure put on ribbon before it was placed on bar ! am not going to rip it apart to show back sorry!the detail to this one is super its not some piece of junk i have seen out there its got round prongs it has very nice pebbling under really nice enameled iron cross ! from what i know of the 1870 campaign medal is the medal in bronze was for anyone who took part in any of battles the medal in steel was for all other personnel in france and medal in steel on combantant ribbon was for anyone on border or in germany who assisted in campaign ! I may be wrong on this but thats how i understood it ! I had another 1870 noncom bar I sold a bit ago that had 1866 noncombat ribbon the 1870 combat ribbon but the steel medal so there are 3 variations you find! I will see if i hav pics of it som were!age he would have been young! my guess was a young medicial aide or some type of medic ?? and became a doctor or something later! or a ambulance related ??? who knows?????I know bar came to me about 15 yrs ago or more probably closer to 20!!!in the box at a antique show in nj. and paid very little for it $ I think maybe $ 200-$300 maybe a little more ! but not much !so not concerned about getting my $ out of it !! it came with a nazi police 8 yr medal in box also but sold it off and people who i got it from relayed it came from a family home of life long german military police family in germany during ww II! so there another ???? was he some type of MP but so much for oral history ! my thought is i keep thinking military police then red cross but why no ww I red cross medal ????and why crown order w/red cross device ?? come on guys HELP ME !!!!! thanks scott
