medalnet Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Searching through old files I came accross this interesting example of a Baden Medal Bar. If I remeber correctly the Zaehringer Lion with swords is Bronze gilt (D) and the civil one gold:
Deruelle Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Hi, Very nice medal bar. I just want to know if this bar belonged to one Reserve officer. RegardsChristophe
Paul C Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 The last medal on the right looks like a landswehr long service medal.
saschaw Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 A really nice bar of a Major d. Reserve or something similar. It has been yours, but isn't anymore?The BZL3a is real gold, the other one gilt. Are you sure it to be bronce gilt? I've never heared this before, read anywhere they are silver gilt. "D" means "Doubl?", but I don't know what it exactly means ...

"D" means "Doubl?", but I don't know what it exactly means ...No, parted many many moons ago.Yes, for sure bronze gilt. That is actually what Doubl? stands for, hence the D mark on most lat WWI badges. I had serval grades in bronze gilt/Doubl? in my medal collecting career.

Nimmergut mentioned this, if I remember correctly.
Stogieman Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Looks very similar to one that ran through eBay Germany not long ago. Beautiful bar Andreas!
