Could you please tell me what does look any different from yours to Haynau's/Demir's? That was a text book Godet made Ottoman war medal, wasn't it? I cannot see anything wrong with it.

In English ; Hello Mr.Demir

Is there a star mark on the first Star which you posted the pictures on the up ?

I do not mean the Godet one which you get from Josef.

Great to see two Turkish collectors on here....

Maybe they could clear up....

1) Who was BBc and co?

2) What crosses did the Turkish soldiers get?

Dear Avsar,

Yes there is a star and here is the picture, it must be Austrian made. The box is made by a jeweller recently. It is always nice to get your opinion. Best wishes. Demir ERMAN

Hi Chris,

1. Everybody is wondering about BB&Co, including myself, but since there is a big amount of BB&Co TWM, I think it must be a local company in Istanbul. It must have been operating during the Gallipoli war and closed afterwards because of the economic difficulties of the Independence War.

2. For Gallipoli there is only one official medal; TWM (Gallipoli Star) and it is the painted one. I don't think as some of my colleques are claiming that these painted ones have been given to the enlisted men and the emaille ones to the officers. No, everybody received the saame aand only official issue. The medal is shown below.

Best wishes
