    Sorry, but it looks like the production of well known eBay-faker "hagekna41". As I can see ribbons are modern synthetic.

    Have to agree, this is fake bar, and the MVK is played with - it used to have swords that were removed... there was just one of this type/class ever awarded!

    Sergio and saschaw,

    I had to dig through some records, but I did find out that I bought this medal bar from "hagekna41" a few years ago. Thank you for pointing out it is a fake.

    Strange that he got a combatant 1870-1871 medal. Does this mean he was a frontline medal? Anyway, a very rare and beautiful combination!

    Means he was likely a military doctor. All of them got the bronze medal.

    This faker uses one and the same version of well recognizable modern dark blue ribbon for Ludwig's cross. The ribbon for the peace-time BMVK is not the original too. Just look at the edges of the ribbons.

    For full confidence please post here HQ-images (the front and the back) of your medal bar.
