landsknechte Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I'm afraid I don't really know all that much about this decoration, but I did find this photograph in my archives that at least shows the ribbon: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Krause Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 That ribbon looks like "Baden" to me.I?ve seen a Waffenring- cross just short time ago on a medal bar wiht a plain green ribbon.Best regardsDaniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I'm sorry to say I cannot help on this one. I've rarely ever seen the piece and not mounted or with a ribbon. An obscure and tough one to find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
