Stogieman Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I think it's real.I think it's rare because of the Anhalt piece in last place.I think you probably just let a dozen other bidders know where this is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 "The one I can't resist...." Happens to me at least a dozen times a day....Yes, a very, very rare medal.... but one that doesn't draw a lot of collector demand except for the specialist. (at least on this side of the pond). Generally speaking, my experience is that US collectors tend to value this type of medal much lower than a combat bar.... Germany however will be a very different story and the final price for this bar will be quite high, I am sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Apparently there WAS a roll of these. In working through George Seymour's award rolls that I have inherited, he made notations of this Anhalt award with an award year, on other rolls. Whatever his Anhalt source was did NOT survive to get to me though. :(t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also lists all recipients: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottplen Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 Just to update ! this medal bar sold to a german collector for $1250.00 I guess thats not a bad price for it? guess it is pretty rare but I would rather have a nice combat related bar!

Guest Rick Research Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Sounds like a good price but I don't know how many there were of each type. There are still many Imperial era awards that are insanely rare yet can still be picked up by anyone lucky enough to find them-- with the right reference sources.
