Thank you very much. I am affraid I shall not be able to identify the halmarks, they are not too clear. The box is plain.

Thank you very much. It has hard enamel, seems to be silver gilt. There are some hallmarks on a ring but I am not able to idetify them.

Nobody?

Hello guys, I have just bought this nice order. I like the design. Dont you know, who was the producer and how many pieces was produced? Also the size 85 mm is strange. Thanks Jan

Thank you very much. I will skip it.

Thank you very much. If you ever have a trip to Prague, you are welcome and I invite you to lunch 🙂. Jan

Thank you. I am afraid that I might have to wait until the end of my life for the original cross awarded. And besides, I could never be sure of the authenticity. In the upcoming local auction there is this one, I will try it.

Thanks for you effort.

Well, the problem is that I am not living in US. I am ready to pay USD 100,- including postage immediately, but shipped to Prague, Czech Republic.

Thank you very much.

The star arrived finaly. It has enclosed markings on reverse. Can you explain? Thanks Jan

Hello, I love Egyptian ODM, I would like to buy this book but in a reasonable price 🙂. Jan

Tank you very much Dave. Jan

After two days of bargaining I bought it at the price indicated by Owain. I am glad that I finally have a star of the order that I consider the most beautiful in the world. The diametter is 82 mm, so Grand Cross. Thank you again for your assistance 🙂.

Congratulations.

Thank very much. You are right Owain, the seller wants more. I'll have to bargain a bit 😀. Jan

Hello, would you be so kind to identify decorations in enclosure? Thanks Jan

Hello guys, somebody is offering this star. I would like to know if it is OK and what would the fair price. Thanks Jan

Nobody?

I have no idea, what is it. What country? Military? Period? Thanks for an advice Jan

Thank you very much.

I know my English is bad, but that's why it's simple and I don't understand how my question can't be misunderstood. So I'll try to explain. In most countries of the world, there are Orders, Decorations and Medals (ODM) that honor individuals. In many countries, military units are also honored with these awards. Both platoons, companies, regiments, divisions, army groups, artillery batteries, warships, military schools, military factories, tombs of unknown soldiers, etc., etc. These decorations are usually attached to the flag of the decorated unit and often with a large, so-called flag ribbon in the colors of the award ribbon. quote Such as U.S. unit citations, French fourragères, or Russian/Soviet naming units as "Guards" units? unquote is something else. Well, my question is whether it happened also in the case of German units. That, for example, an artillery battery could be awarded the Iron Cross 1st class or some regiment the Order of Red Eagle, etc. Thanks

No no. Regular orders and medals which are awarded to soldiers. This is quite normal pratice in many countries like Soviet Union, France, Italy, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, Greece and many, many others. .
