Not GODETs but nice none the less

A nice Baden enlisted bar.

[dond]

The reverse for Ricky.

[dond]

And a noncombatant bar with the EK2.

[dond]

Again for Ricky.

[dond]

Last one is an Austrian bar that I am betting is bad. A cheap ebay.de pick up so no harm done.

[dond]

Backside as before.

[VtwinVince]

That Baden Frackspange is a real beauty.

[scottplen]

Super baden bar !!! I was watching that on german ebay!!! :cheers:

Post No. 5 - looks like the silver Signum Laudis has been cast. Look at what are supposed to be the oak (?) leaves around the dual crowns - no detail.

No Karl truppen Kreuz, but a large Silver Bravery and a Hungarian commemorative medal this seem strange to me, but...perhaps.

All but perhaps two of the medals are bad so I don't have much hope for the bar itself. It was the old crappy ebay pics and I put a low-ball bid in on the off chance I'd get a Christmas deal. I think the A-H awards are under rated and wanted an example to set next to my German stuff.

[Claudio]

Very nice stuff... especially the Badische Frackspange! Congrats!

I don't think to have seen a zinc type version of the Verdienstkreuz of the Orden vom Z?hringer der L?wen... must have been quite late issue. Very nice also the label (red!) on the back...

Ciao,

#1 is superb.

#2's meanderings I have followed for almost a decade now when Stogie outbid me.

I briefly held it at Lowell @ 6-7 years ago. It's a small world.

#3 is worth studying in detail. Note the stitching pattern.

i love the baden frackenspnage :cheers:

[saschaw]

#1 is just great, I would have loved to get that one, too - but it went to high for me. Pity you missed the matching button with the two (Baden) minis...

#3 is typical Austrian eCrap. Who was the seller? Was it "heustadl13", "leginaer-vienna" or someone else? However, those are the same and if you take a close look on the rest of the offers...

Still, great Baden bar and if you ever get tired of it...

:rolleyes:

[dond]

I tried for the mini but luck was not with me...

Let's illustrate the thread with the missing knopfloch.
