David Gregory Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 sweet crosses! Is it possible to obtain any ribbons for these?Ulsterman,There are a couple of Austrian-based sellers on German eBay who sell a selection of original Imperial German and related ribbons on a regular basis. They seem to be selling off old tailor's stock, but much of what they offer is only in widths suitable for ribbon bars. The usual suspects buy from them regularly.David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccj Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 That?s the bar in question...MiguelI used to have a couple of good sources for Bulgarian but the supply has diminished. I've never seen a Bulgarian only bar. I thought Bulgarians mounted their medals like the Austrians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Orincsay Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I got this nice medal some years ago as a bonus in a trade. I didn?t pay much attention to it until I remembered that I can ask all you gentlemen here on this forum about it. Does anybody know for why it was awarded and to whom? This medal itself was together with some very common Hungarian and Austrian WW1 memorial medals in a group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 That is a "Medal for Merit" in bronze for Tsar Boris III (post-war 1918 until his murder in 1943). On civil or peacetime ribbon, and to persons with the same status as army privates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
