    That last medal is not supposed to be a War Merit Cross. Someoneplaced the wrong pendant. I think that the medal pendant is supposed to be the Kyffhauserbund medal.

    These medals are inexpensive to find, so it is an easy fix.

    1. The black center stripe is narrower and the red stripes are wider on the KVK.

    2. The medal bar is in the correct order if the medal was a Kyffhauserbund Medal and completely out of order if the medal was supposed to be a KVK2.

    3. There is no Hindenberg Cross Present, which should be on the medal bars of WW1 Veterans after 1934.

    :cheers:

    Hallo hipnos :cheers:

    Unless I am mistaken that style of thin bladed swords on the ribbon,

    are only given with the Combatant version of the

    Kyffershauserbund medal as well.

    Excuse me for the abuse...But what do you think of the baden Verdienst medal, that somebody brutalized to fit the elongated ring in a round one...? possibly there are another different medal there???

    No, this is very typical to find converted this way,

    usually mounted so as to hide the converted ribbon ring.

    as these medals originally came with a oblong ribbon Ose

    peculiar to the State of Baden and a devil to hang straight.
