Thanks SPM. I think i will pass on this one! Kind regards Matt

The cross does not appear to be smooth either...kind of "lumpy" in places. What do you make of it? Thanks Matt

Gents, I have never seen one with a suspension ring like this. Is this an original cross? Seller states it to be non-magnetic. Best wishes Matt

This one is a lovely exapmle! Good luck with bidding! Matt

Would it be the 1914-1918 Honor Cross with Swords?

Hi Scottplen, When you say wearers copy do you just mean a modern copy/period copy? Thanks for the website! Regards Matt

I have seen this medal bar for sale. Is the enlisted mens PLM an original? Where these usually mounted on the medal bar? Thanks Matt

Yes, i am now actively seeking and seaching for medal bars!! Any suggestion for good websites to look on? Thanks Matt

Rick Research, Firstly....WOW.... I had no idea this could be done! What a "tour"!! So many resourses to draw from, you really are dedicated to the cause of research! My thanks to you sir...if i was wearing a hat i would take it of to you!! Truely amazing!! When i first got this bar i knew it was special, not many bars with a Crown Order, plus i like enamelled orders like the Lubeck Cross....but i had no idea it was this special, the medal bar of a Generalleutnant..... I am bowled over by how fast you got this information, i only posted this yesterday! Thank you to Claudius who posted a link to a photo of Dittmar...i see he was in British captivity! And Heiko...as for the slippery slope...i think i am falling head over heals down the hill of medal bar collecting! I have no real focus regarding a "collection", so this has given me something to consider! Do you chaps think it a wise road to go down? My best to to you all! Matt

Hi Claudius, Do you have these Lubeck rolls? Or is there somewhere i can access a copy? Be interesting to see what kinda chap wore this bar! Matt

Hi Gents! No name came with this bar.If Crown Orders were not given to NCO's, what kind of chap would have gotten this award? Amazing how you can put a date on the bar! Is it possible to put names/rank to these medal bars? Thanks for the info! Matt

And my only medal bar! Matt

A few ribbon bars.

Genbtlemen, Here are a few items from my small collection. I have never had them discussed anywhere before, i think they are all ok, but would like you to give them the once over! First up my badges! Kind regards Matt Hunter

Many thanks for this info! I always thought the enamelled BB&Co ones were for German Officers! Good Q from Chris....i have no idea but hopefully some of the experts can answer this one! Matt P.S. Having some problems using this forum...i am a new member as of yesterday! but i cannot seem to acces my own profile or even use the search engine! any clues? Thanks Matt

Hello Gentlemen. This is my first post on this forum. I was hoping to find out a bit more information on the Turkish Iron Star. Here is one that is currently on ebay. Is it a good one? I know there were painted versions as well as enamel versions. Where the painted ones all Turkish made? Thank you M Hunter.
