    German Saxon Friedrich August Medal Order


    Recommended Posts

    Hello gentlemen! I just bought this medal, as I am still a baby in militaria skills, could somebody tell me if $23.50US was too much to pay for it please? Sorry about the poor photos, they are all that was offered. I am very grateful for the help I have received here in my steep learning curve!

    Hallo Troy,

    the best reference i can give you is the website of a friend of mine. He collect award of the Kingdom of Saxon for several years and have a huge collection.

    The only bad news is the site is only in german.

    Hi Troy, here's an image of mine, also mounted with original ribbon. the reason for mentioning the forbidden "Modern replacement" ribbons in my earlier post is that I understand from other members that collectors of european awards, particularly imperial german feel that a replacement ribbon actually may de-value the piece rather than enhance it. This seems to be the completely the opposite for those who collect for example British campaign medals of which I have a reasonable collection. replacement ribbons in this case does not always detract if a quality replacement can be found.

    sorry to ramble

    regards

    Alex K
