    I'm a big fan of Dutch awars. A Lot of Dutch awards where given to German persons because of the close relationships between the various states and monarchs. Does anyone have photo's of medalbars with Dutch awards?

    I will show a few I found online:

    EK II. Klasse, 1914

    K?niglicher Hausorden von Hohenzollern, Ridder met zwaarden

    Roter Adler Orden 4. Klasse

    Offiziersdienstauszeichnungskreuz f?r 25 Jahre

    I will PM you with identities of the "anonymous" bars because understand that I will not present free value adding research to totally unknown third parties who may have these bars now or be selling them without this information. :beer:

    What the first group brings up is we can now attribute ZINK SMKs to an award date as early as 9 July 1917. Previously the only other ex-George Seymour groups I could recall had zinky SMKs from June 1918. :cheers:

    Sorry i have nothing to add but i've enjoyed viewing the medal bars. 

    Would it be more likely to see Prussian Officers with Dutch awards due to proximate, or did any of the other state militarize have a special relationship with the Dutch King?

    Cheers,

    Chuck

    That would be Mecklenburg -Schwerin.  Duke Henry married Queen Wilhelmina which is why you see lots of Dutch orders and medals worn by Mecklenburg citizens and to a lesser extent Waldeck-Pyrmont.
