German Medal Bar with Jerusalemkreuz

[M Hunter]

Gents,

Thought i would post this up for discussion, was on eBay recently, think it was re-listed. A very interesting combination of the Prussian War Aid Cross and the Jerusalem Cross!

Would this be classed as a non-combatant medal bar?

Would appreciate any information that can be provided regarding this decoration being bestowed upon a German.

Any members got this medal on a medal bar?

Best regards to all.

Matt

Hi Matt,

That is an interesting spange. I have a large Godet bar with this decoration on it, it is slightly different from the one you posted and something I bought as part of a larger purchase. It was shown in a previous thread by Noor, perhaps someone with more computer skills than I can dredge it up.

Sorry, but this kind of Jerusalem cross is described by Sauerwald as a copy. Note the differences to an original one with a gold center:

Komtur have right, that piece is a clear copy and the bar is waste.
