Einbauschrank Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 As a total nonexpert to medals and other honors: What's the second from the right? I found such a medal once within a bag of old coins but without the ribbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noor Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 Second from right is Hindenburg cross with swords (Ehrenkreuz des Weltkrieges 1914-18). Its very common Germany 1WW commemorative cross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einbauschrank Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 OK thanks! It looked cheap and so I thought it was some kind of replica and put it back into the bag. The coins were nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noor Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 Just wondering, is there any chance to track this medal bar or not? Maybe Red Cross decoration helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev in Deva Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 (edited) Hallo Noor, a very nice piece, congratulations on obtaining it Kevin in Deva. As a total nonexpert to medals and other honors: What's the second from the right? I found such a medal once within a bag of old coins but without the ribbon.Hi Einbauschrank, the Hindenberg Cross for Combatant, issued from 1934 onwards,Its issue numbers were up to 6 and a half million, which makes it a very common award.Kevin in Deva.
