Tom, This is the longest Customs medal bar I have seen. Well done on getting this one, definitely a rarity!! Best wishes Matt
-
Hi Tom, Very nice addition to your fabulous collection! Well done on the excellent restoration. Best wishes Matt
-
I will second that! The buyer is a lucky guy!

I agree. I believe this is what it looks like. I believe ribbon No.3 is for the Tirol Commemorative Medal not the Bulgarian. Ribbon No.4 could represent an Austrian Long Service Decoration. Best wishes Matt

John, A very nice intact Hamburg Hanseatic Cross there. It has been stored safely over the years. If you ever consider letting this one go please let me know. Best wishes Matt

A very nice piece of history Christer! Congratulations! Best wishes Matt

I think it was on Jamie Cross' website recently.

Bundesrepublik 57er U-Boot ribbon bar
M Hunter replied to Arthur Spooner's topic in Germany: Post 1945: Bundesrepublik & DDR
These are two great ribbon bars! I really like the 2 row bar. Best wishes Matt -
Mike Very interesting. Thanks for posting. Best wishes Matt

Claudio, Well done on reuniting this group. Great work! Best wishes Matt

Dear Sandro, I would agree with the other gentlemen, the last three ribbons are Hesse Medal (most likely a bravery medal), Hamburg Hanseatic Cross & Lübeck Hanseatic Cross. Congratulations on getting this one. I was tempted to bid on it myself. It is sometimes difficult to come across ribbon bars with the Lübeck Hanseatic Cross ribbon. Best wishes Matt

An impressive array of awards for sure. Great photo Christophe. Best wishes Matt

Very nice Christophe. Do you know when in 1918 Döring died? Best wishes Matt
-
:love: :love: Excellent! Best wishes Matt

Simply beautiful Rudi. Well worth the wait! Best wishes Matt
-
Many thanks for your opinions gentlemen. It is as I thought. Best wishes Matt

Hi Christophe, I do not know the seller personally. His eBay user ID is flamebellow. Edit: The medal bar has a "Buy It Now" price of $450USD. Best wishes Matt

Gentlemen, I am considering buying this medal bar, currently on eBay. Two things worry me; The minty ribbons The Bavarian Long Service Medal placed after the EK2. I would expect it to be after the Bavarian MVK. I would be interested in hearing your opinions Gentlemen. My thanks Matt
-
Sascha, Regarding both your above points- I was thinking exactly the same thing. Is there anyway a Prussian could end up with a Bavarian Long Service Cross? Or is there some possible reason why his Prussian decorations took precedance if he is in fact Bavarian? Matt

Jeannot, These are 3 beautiful war badges. I don't know which one I like the best! Best wishes Matt
-
Dear Timo, These are very nice additions to your collection. I believe the second ribbon on the first ribbon bar represents one of the many Saxe-Ernestine Decorations. Looking closely at it I can see the definitive thin black stripe on the inside edge of the green stripe. Best wishes Matt
-
Rudi These are remarkable pieces. Best wishes Matt
-
A very informative thread gentlemen. There is a lot more to this medal than I first thought. @lambert: interesting that there are buttons on the reverse for attaching instead of a pin. I have a ribbon bar that is quite similar. Best wishes Matt
-
I don't believe I have seen one of these on the non combatant ribbon. I really like these with the Crown attached. Great to see and thanks for posting! Best wishes Matt
