Kev in Deva Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Congratulations on your new acquisitions, its great to get items with cases and paper work together! Kevin in Deva. :beer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 I cannot explain the fascination I have with this order. It just seems very beautiful to me. I have recently acquired a Fourth Class Cased to go with the Fifth Class I already have watch over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 More images. Maybe it's the resemblance to early imperial era breast stars? In any event, I am quite pleased with this example! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 I received this interesting Order of Labor (RPR, 3.Kl.) not too long ago. It raises a lot of questions for me.... Looks like a "Royalty" era case? The paper tag on the lid that matches the stamping? Why the numbering? I've seen an awful lot of this award floating about.... but precious few numbered? How rare is this style/type? Here's some details from Rick Research's scanner: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 Here's a broader view of the order, front & back: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 Now, to further complicate the questions.... Here's another example (2.Kl.) with a numbered pin, as opposed to a number stamped into the backing plate. Later case, possibly/probably mis-matched?

Stogieman Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 I still don't have the hang of the new format... here's the order a bit larger perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 This is my only RSR era piece... a Labor Medal, with document. It's in a RPR case that someone very carefully scratched out the "P" in RPR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
