"Normal" or "Frankenstein bar"

[hipnos]

This bar has a Nice combination...but the mounting style is rather shabby, more when you consider the rev...? What do you think??

Thanks

Hi Miguel, I think the bar is "home-made" by a frugal veteran. The fakers usually do not do such sloppy work.

Thanks...That?s another reason to think about...

I think also. Many soldiers did not have to buy the money around itself expensive bars from z.B.Godet and the wives became active in such a way. ;o)

I saw that bar once before and have no doubt about it. Very nice the Meiningen cross in late war zinc, much rarer than the bronce version...

MUCH rarer, as those of you who have bought the awards rolls books will know.

BTW, I am still "tweaking" absolutely PRECISE numbers of lovely chocolate bronze versus decent gray zink by groups whose recipients can be identified and matched to the rolls. So far the first verified zinky recipient was Oberstleutnant Georg Schmidt, commander of Inf Rgt 82, on 9 July 1917.

That?s great. Thanks for your work...
