saschaw Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) Dear Gentlemen, I'm actually "Imperial German" but came across those for a very reasonable price on eBay so bought them. If better pictures should be needed - it's not possible yet but I'll post them as soon as I have the badges here. The medal is a "Milos Obilic medal", awarded for bravery - that's all I found yet. The two other things seem to be Serbian too, so I guess the crown may be as well. Any comment appreciated, thanks in advance. 😃 Edited July 28, 2023 by saschaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I'd love to know what that is top right. maybe...exiled White Russian regimental badge (he thought hopefully)....? The bravery medal is cool and from what I understand, the equal of the EK1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orden_master Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hithe top right badge is from the Ljotic National volonteers guard from WWIIBest regardsMilanDear Gentlemen, I'm actually "Imperial German" but came across those for a very reasonable price on eBay so bought them.

hipnos Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hithe top right badge is from the Ljotic National volonteers guard from WWIIBest regardsMilanYes It looks like a MO bravery medal silver (2nd class)Milan I want to ask you why in some No orders groups, the "Albanian retreat medal" is placed in first place, like in the pisc you send that has preeminence over the military zeal medal and other campaign medals...It?s not considered a campaign medal?? Is a "Royal House" medal??ThanksMiguel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orden_master Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hello MiguelI will have to look at the regulations from that period to say how exactly the way was they had to be worn. But as far as I have seen on pictures the rules of precedence have been respected regarding orders, for medals the rules were not that strictly respected so you can see and find many variations of precedence of medals.Regards MilanPS: second answer for Ulstermanthe Ljotic Serbian Volunteer Corps as the official correct name was has indeed the force of a regiment (3700 men) so the badge could very well be compared to Russian regimental badges.BTW the inscription around the badge says "with faith in god for the king and the fatherland- volunteers"Yes It looks like a MO bravery medal silver (2nd class)Milan I want to ask you why in some No orders groups, the "Albanian retreat medal" is placed in first place, like in the pisc you send that has preeminence over the military zeal medal and other campaign medals...It?s not considered a campaign medal?? Is a "Royal House" medal??ThanksMiguel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Thanks Gentlemen for that fast and good information. Are those things faked, would you need better pictures to tell if they are original? If they're genuine (I think they're), what does these cost about? I don't think I'll keep them - if someone here'd be interrested, please e-mail me, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Well, if the price was right....I'd like the top two pieces.Going back to the regimental badge; is the badge worn lower right a similar unit badge? Is it official (like the Polish unit badges) or commemorative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orden_master Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 No, this is not a regimental badge.It is from the association of veterans.RegardsMilanWell, if the price was right....I'd like the top two pieces.Going back to the regimental badge; is the badge worn lower right a similar unit badge?
