Bavarian Militär Verdienst Order, 4th. Class w/ Swords

[jshorter]

Hi everyone,

I just received my newest medal bar today, and the Bavarian Militär Verdienst Order, 4th. Class with Swords is marked the following way on the reverse:

- On the medal = "950 J. L."

- On the Swords = "J. L. 900"

I know the number is for the silver content, but what does the "J. L." stand for (which maker)?

Thank you!

Hallo Jshorter

Nice Eye Candy, :jumping:

The J. L. = Jakob Lesser, the maker.

I agree with Matt - this is a lovely mounting for a simple group. Of course, anything with a MVO is great in my opinion. One of my favorite decorations.
