Guest Rick Research Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Why yes, appears to be a Prinz Alfons brooch mini (!!!???) on a Luitpold Jubilee ribbon! Just to compare the designs, the full size silver class= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Possibly made as a fob of some type? Or simply on the wrong ribbon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landsknechte Posted August 20 Author Share Posted August 20 Found another one of these up for sale, this time on that weird ribbon I've been trying to definitively nail down for ~20 years. (The seller describes it as a "Prinz Albert 1 Klasse medal silber miniature", the attribution of which I'm not putting a lot of stock.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 A possibility: https://www.ehrenzeichen-orden.de/deutsche-staaten/prinz-alfons-erinnerungszeichen.html "The badge was awarded with various ribbons as a backing. The Hubertus ribbon (red with green edges), blue ribbon with white edges (for military clubs), green ribbon with white and blue border stripes (for shooting clubs) and green ribbon with blue and white diamonds on the edge (for small-caliber shooting clubs) are well known." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be akin to the miniature versions of those older style landwehr badges that occasionally make their way into some lapel bows: Edited August 26 by landsknechte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
