Gordon Craig Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Kevin,It doesn't look Hungarian and is too wide for a Hungarian ribbon. At their largest, Hungarian ribbons were 40mm wide.Other than that I can not help.Regards,Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Kev,Checked the resources I have with no luck i'm afraid.Because of the Red, White and black Austro-Hungarian or Austria maybe?Regards Eddie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Craig Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Kev,Here is a Hungarian ribbon for comparison purposes. These ribbons are normally found on sports awards. They are 40mm wide and soft and silky to the touch. Not rough as you had mentioned yours was.Regards,Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazsi Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I am also sure, that it isn't have any Hungarian or Austro-Hungarian connections.It looks like a private ribbon or unofficial version because of the material.Regards, Bazsi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
