Greg,

It is a pure guess but maybe a Hannover vets medal from Franco-Prussian War. The ovals are often found on vets orgs or regimental medals. I'm also guessing on the ribbon as a faded red / white. Does the back say anything? Steve

Thanks Steve

Here is the back. the ribbon is orange and white. I think. the colors

match both of my Red Eagles.

The medal reads:

In Remembrance of the campain against France 1870

We were quick united for Germany's Honor - to punish impudent insolence

Thank you

So this would date post 1871. Maybe even around the time of the

1895 Jubilee ?

Thanks again for your help
