Stogieman Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 OK, here's a very nice Bavarian Medal Bar with 3 simple, unimpressive pieces. 150- Euro and counting. Who can tell me why it's so rare?http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 I enjoyed touching that group as it passed through for astroturf-free scanning. Of course yours in doubly terrific with the also extremely rare Civil Merit Medal.So, who was the lucky winner of the SECOND one I've seen in 30 years? I can't believe my Evil Twin dropped the ball on THAT for the ridiculously low price! Though finding a CORRECT Civil Merit Medal on the OLD Bavarian style bar in place of the silly M1913 IX Years Long Service will be horrific-- I've seen maybe 6 in 30 years-- the police cross is by far the scarcer in the real world!

Daniel Krause Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 That is just anoher example why You do not need to take the prices in the OEK overly serious.2 known examples here and I know of another ribbon bar with one on it and such a ridiculaus price in the OEK.

Bob Hunter Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Daniel, regardless of the OEK these are not exactly bargains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
