I would guess it is the Austrian Anschluss medal 1938.

BTW, it is a Staff Officers Cap worn from Major to Colonel.
Lt´s and Captains had a smaller silver embroidery and Generals wear "golden stuff".

Willy II did NOT wear any 1870 medal. He was too young to serve as an active soldier in this war.
The Prussian princes got a theoretical commission as 10 year old boys but started to serve as "real" Officer atr the age of 18.
The number 4 medal in Pierce´ pics is very interesting and I am already looking forward to hot discussions.
Sascha W. pointed me already to that medal a year ago.
In my opinion it is a quite odd award. From different pics we can say that this is the 1863 napoleonic wars commemorative medal, but worn on the Hohenzollern ribbon.
As far as we can say now, there were at least 4-5 Prussian princes wearing this medal, Willy 2 and Fritz 3 among them.
The medal bar of Prince Albrecht is in the DHM in Berlin - showing this comm. medal on the HOH ribbon!
I think, Willy 1 issued this medal to all veterans of the 1813-15 wars and most likely awarded this medal on the Hohenzollern Ribbon to the Princes of the royal house who maybe took part in the celebrations.

I am absolutely sure that this is the 2nd row of 2 bars...
The blue-crown as 922F already said is most likely the Jugo Crown Order.

He did not become Field Marshal.
Even on his grave is a sculpture of him wearing Colonel General epaulettes.

Very nice one!!!
I agree with Glenn.
I´ve never seen a kind of a complete "Porträt-Galerie" from Fricke.
It seems they all have been single issues, mostly mid 1890ies.
My impression is as well that mostly they might have been used in the official barracks romms or guard houses to recognize the higher commanders.
Single portraits like yours are nearly always Regimental commanders, usually you will find pics with 4 or five guys, the chain of command upwards; Reg.Cdr, Brig.Cdr, Div.Cdr, CorpsCdr and sometimes the Kaiser.

Hi Paul,
Might it be that The 2 Anhalts shall represent Bavarian Jubilee medals?
The bar looks very small. Maybe the outfitter did not have exact matching ribbons?

Odd enough, Alan G. owns a small "new style" ribbon bar from the same guy without the peacetime foreign stuff.
