    wow!!!! I have never seen the St. Fernandez before! Ironic that it was given to a fwew who had served there a mere 10 years before under Napoleon huh? Beautiful! :cheers:

    This Order of St. Ferdinanz (spanish= Orden de San Fernando), is really curious! and sooo nice, tomorrow I'll show some more interesting medals :sleep:

    A beautiful Order of Maria Cristina 1st class, awarded to a General of Cavalry when he was a officer fighting in the Cuba war 1896-1898, this order was stablished by Queen Maria Cristina on her regency in 1890, it's a early sample, in my oppinion the nicest spanish decoration design.
