Hello Heiko Grusdat, thanks for the welcome, I did actualy purchase this bar today in e-bay Germany. The bar looks strange to me too - that is why I posted it. Even though the main awards, EK II, MVO, China 1900 and the 15 years servive medal do not contradict each other timewise. The ribbons look pretty new to me - therefore I believe that only a check in regards to the previous owner can confirm or outrule it authenticy. Even if the bar itsself would be induvidually constructed - the medals could still be real - No?? Please refer to the other photos: I can't upload the other photos since this page only permits 70K (which I honestly find very restricted - and I don't really know why). Regards Ulan

Hello Gentleman, Surely you have noticed that I am fairly new to this exiting and very professional Forum, and I am happy to be on it. Some of you Gents, posess incredible knowledge when it comes to identifying fromer owners of Medalbars, therefore I am placing a photo of a recent purchase of mine. Maybe it will be possible for someone to help me on identifying the former owner/wearer of this bar. Your help is greatly appreciated Regards Ulan

Hello Gentleman, my interest leans more towards the Imperial times - (mostly German/Bavarian military collectables). Does anyone have information in regards to the British awards for participants of the Boxerrevolution. I would like to know if there were distinctions of this award given to participants such as the German Boxermedal e.g. gold for combattants and silver for administrative personal Please refer to the attachment: Thanks in advance, Regards Ulan
