Guest Rick Research Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 The ribbon on your medal bar is correct. The other is just similar, but incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian L Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Thats the proper medal to the 2nd ribbon - German Honor Legion Medal with 2 years of active Frontline Service Device on the ribbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudio Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) Hi W! Nice Weimar era medal bar! The bar "Somme" is also correct if you check the history of the Feld.Art.Regt 7: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/1._Westf%C3%A4lisches_Feldartillerie-Regiment_Nr._7 Ciao, Claudio Edited August 6, 2009 by Claudio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noor Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Nice Weimar period medal bar!!!! Here is two of my ribbon bars from same period. What would be the awards on first bar No. 3, second bar awards No. 3 and No. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valter Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 1st bar no.3 is Verdienstkreuz des preuss. Landes-Kkriegerverbandes - quite a common weimar period award: http://www.sammlercabinett.com/d/details/14977.html 2nd bar no3 - no idea, too faded no 4 - Preussisches Kriegserinnerings-kreuz 2. kl. (sorry, I can't find a pic...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudio Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) With exception of the 4 place ribbon bar's first decoration (Iron Cross), all other ribbons are for inofficial Veterans' commemorative medals/crosses of the Weimar period (1919-1933). The third one is very likely a faded Saxon WWI Veteran cross ribbon (green colour ribbons tend to fade a lot during time).

Claudio Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 The cross looks like this... (from the website: http://www.herzovision.de/sachsens-orden/24a6bc96790dcbe01/24a6bc96790dd1a07/24a6bc98e90e09503/index.html ). There are several classes and variants, with enamel or gilted metal cross. Ciao, Claudio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
