Motorhead Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 This one dropped in today-I've bought this a while ago at Ebay-what do you think? The thread that was used at the backside is no polyester,the ribbon ring of the Nassau medal is a repair. Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buellmeister Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Micha, Ineresting Medal Bar! I have the same without the campaign bars. Interesting to note that there were only about 5000 +/- Nassau medals issued. Making these real collectible in my book. Regards,Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haku Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hello Micha there is an article to this medal bar in the BDOS medal and decorations magazine 52 12/2007. This medal bar is shown and the article goes about the Naussauische Feldzeichen 1866. RegardsBernhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorhead Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 Indeed! And I bought the medal bar directly from the writer of that article! Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorhead Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 -no,that what look like Feldgrau is the pure metal,the silverish obverse of the metal is something like nickel?. I will try to make some better pics tomorrow(hopefully with better daylight than today)Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Ah. Ok-- that is the standard zink finish on these old bars then.I've shown this one (someplace) before, but THIS is what some of these were made out of, so... Yup. Made out of an old TIN CAN.

saschaw Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Nice and not too common bar, having been published in a magazine even nicer. Yup. Made out of an old TIN CAN. Well why not, the Ottomans even made their decoration from this ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
