I would add, that now in Russia is engaged in check of all not official awards. There is their prohibition.

In any case informal awards CANNOT be made similar to the state awards.

I saw, that these medals carry, probably them and someone awards.

But I concern such "awards" not so well.

Uniform not the Christmas fur-tree.

I hope that can be identified by somebody comparing new awards between the 1908 and 1909 Rank Lists. Anybody have both?

In 1908 us 2 officers approach only.

Hello,

an excellent MVK (Friede) with a long dedication, raising from emerald-green enamel.

Congratulations!

Enzo

Yes, it is emerald-green enamel.

Probably green colour and gold letters are colours of a regiment.

@ Sascha: thanks for your intelligence work (Nachrichtendienst)

At least I have the satisfaction that that Russian super rich and spoiled collector had to pay over Eur 500.- for a very nice but nonetheless after 1934 put together ribbon bar... I remember German collectors who very buying in the 80s ribbon bars paying DM 1.- per ribbon + DM 1.- per device...

Now everything seems to be got out of control... I really hope that this current worldwide financial crisis will bring back many people back to reality... but on the other hand what are Eur 500.- for a somebody who can have millions in his bank account? For him Eur 500.- are for me like Eur 5000.- or even more. In my life I can say that I always honestly for my money, though... so at night I can sleep like a baby with a good conscience...

No wonder that nowadays German dealers and auctioneer bring more Russian things on the market and translate their website in Russian... I think without them we would see a considerably drop of prices...

@ Rick: I could gladly sell the Russian my Feldmann's medal bar for Eur 10'000.- if he really badly wants it! I wouldn't hesitate to do that... What was sooo special about that ribbon bar for his however, it's for me a mistery: no other documents were offered along the ribbon bar, I HAVE got the medal bar and, most importantly for Russian collectors, there're no Russian orders, medals or history attached to that bar. There must be something else... boh! Who knows!?

Claudio,

Sales of awards in Russia were very strongly reduced, especially on the Russian and Soviet awards. Very strongly...

Now even those at whom will not buy millions euro under the prices of summer 2008.

Sales of awards of the German empire never were big and I cannot believe, that it have bought in the Russian collection.

I think business here in other.

Is this literally a father and son set? I love the one on the left. The brown Nebenfarbe is not at all common!

No, it is not literally.

Rick,

I think, that it is early Shoulderboards.

At an early stage army used different shades of grey colour and "checkerboard".
