Paul R Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Thanks for posting this attractive order. What was it awarded for? What did the neck ribbon look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 There were four of these (commander neck badge, commander breast star, and two knight's badges) in the last M&E sale. The images are probably still up on their website (lots 543-546). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megan Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 No ribbons on the M&E images, but it was described to me as being crimson edged dark blue, with a dark blue central stripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
