Noor Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hi all, Something nice for Hanseatic collectors! Just arrived my new adition for my collection - Hanseatic League Napoleonic Wars Military medal, 1813-1814 in silver (Gemeinsame Kriegsdenkmünze für die Hanseatische Legion 1815) Like I understand, made by Gottfried Bernhard Loos (1774-1843) in Berlin for Hanseatic Legion battalions. www.ehrenzeichen-orden.de states that only 800 silver awarded and 12 golden ones. Someone, who have same award(s) or know well this period items, maybe can have a look at the pictures below and advise regarding originality. To me details looks very good and sharpe. 35,92mm wide 1,62mm thick weight 14,9 (these figures can be varie a little). close ups.... Regards, Timo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M Hunter Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) As some here may know, I am a Hanseatic collector and I must say Timo that this is a beautiful piece!! My congratulations on obtaining it. Do you know if that is the original ribbon? Best wishes Matt Edited April 4, 2011 by M Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if that is the original ribbon? Best wishes Matt Thanks Christophe and Matt! Ribbon is unfortunately modern replacement and I am actually considering to display it without it (or if I can find period Lübeck Hanseatic Cross ribbon for that, what looks exact same).
