Hello to everyone,
MAX Show pick-ups. I know the first medal is for Southwest Africa service. I am not sure about the 2nd one. Can anyone help me identify exactly what the 2nd medal is.
Thank you in advance.

Hello to everyone,
I picked this up at the MAX show this weekend. It appears to be a miniature flight badge. Can anyone help with identification of this badge. It is 2 inches (5.1 cm) tall and 1.25 inches (3.2 cm) wide.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Honestly, I don't know. 1332 does correspond to the start of the war in August 1914, so maybe the dating is like the French Croix de Guerre or various bars to some German decorations like the medal of the Saxe-Ernestine Order from Saxe-Coburg & Gotha. I don't have my Turkish reference works at hand.
Dave,
Thanks for checking anyway. I did find this website, maybe you can make some sense of it.

Dave,
What does that mean? Everything I have seen shows this medal being issued in 1915. Please help.

Hello to everyone,
I am looking for information on the clasp that is on this Turkish Liyakat medal bar. The only thing I have found is that the clasp is for combat. Any information would be helpful. Thank you.

Hello to everyone,
I just picked up this medal bar. I know the 2nd medal is the Order of the Osmanieh, but I do know what class it is (3rd or 4th). Also, there is a clasp on top of the medal. I do not know what this for. Any information would be helpful.
Thank you

Hello Dean,

It has to be mounted showing the Prince.

Dean,
Great little cross. I do not like these (Hindenburgs) as a rule but this version is rare. I own two by different makers. Ralph A. has one also. I turned the first one up a at Summit County gun show for $15! I still like it.
Definitly a smaller cross than the normal one. I'll look for the old thread. It should still be here. Nice obscure find!
CRBeery,
You said you found one at the Berea gun show?

I have never seen one like it. Most likely modified by a jeweler. Regardless, well worth the price IMHO. Great find.
Thanks Paul. I probably will not see another one again.

Paul,
I have no idea on how many where issued, this is the first one I have seen.

Hello to everyone,
I picked this up at at the last MAX show. Simple, short and sweet. The non-combatant merit cross is what drew me to this.

Hello Dean,
I think you´re right with some sort of servant.
The 2nd is the Goldene Hochzeits - Jubiläumsmedaille and the highlight on 5th
is unfortunately missing it´s the Goldene Ludwigsmedaille für Wissenschaft und Kunst.
Regards
Andreas
Andreas,
Thank you for your help.

Spolei,
Can you explain what you meant by "Please turn the Luitpoldmedal to the frontside.
Which yearfigures shows the bandeau under the crown".I thought I had the medal correctly positioned. I agree that it was a civilian that received this medal bar. Perhaps artist, musician, family friend or loyal servant.

bryansk1959 and Andreas,
After looking closer at the pictures both of you provided, I can now see that the cross I bought has some serious flaws. I can now put it in the fake drawer.
Thank you
Dean
