Dete Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 if the internet pagee is correct, this one went for around 6600 Euro icl. fees. I quite often pay more for things i really want, but in this case is there anything on the bar which i can t see? Or maybe is it possible to put a name on it? regards Detlev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misiu Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 oh, the auction already ended I guess it is possible to put a name on it: Finland + Waldeck + Württember is not quite common, or? Detlef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) Hi, The only roll available is for the Waldeck order. Till the other one are not done it will be difficult to put a name on it, too bad Christophe Edited June 28, 2011 by Deruelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misiu Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 What is se Wamdecl order? I read in sis forum sat se Waldeck rolls are available?! Detlef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 The receiptant is known. If someone knows the new owner of the bar tell him that he may contact me. There will be a fee for the identification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misiu Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 wow...so quickly a receiptant can be identified. Or is the bar well known to sis forum? Detlef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) Now that I took a closer look... a bargain. Not me who bought it... The only roll available is for the Wamdecl order. Till the other one are not done it will be difficult to put a name on it, too bad This is someone one should look for in a Reichswehr rank list! The WVK4X/WF3bX combination is unusual.

christerd Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Hmm nice bar and not hard to Id I suppose , I know how many Liberty Cross 2nd 1918 that was awarded and the combo must be unique These crosses were made in Germany by the way , by the firm Otto Oertel in Belin, while the medals were made by Sporrong in Sweden. But still 6600 Euro is a lot, but if I had that kind of money to spend on my hobby so why not Nice catch Christer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Sascha, You are right about Reichswehr RL. This combo is unique. If ound the name of the owner of the bar. For me only one officer in the Reichswehr wore such combo. I have forgotten to see in those books. Years ago I have made research about majors orders in the RL 1925. Now each important orders has been classified and it is easy to make research. I have just need to think about my work Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misiu Posted June 29, 2011 Author Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hello, for me as a beginner. What means: WVK4X/WF3bX ? And why is this combo unique? Is there a book on the market available where to teach oneself the research of medal bars? Detlef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Is there a book on the market available where to teach oneself the research of medal bars? Not that I'd be aware of. I learned it all here and on other forums. for me as a beginner. What means: WVK4X/WF3bX ? Waldeck, Verdienstkreuz 4. Klasse mit Schwertern und Württemberg, Friedrichsorden, Ritterkreuz II. Klasse mit Schwertern. In "Ranglisten-Sprache"... And why is this combo unique? Well, because noone else wore it? :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deruelle Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 hi, there is a thread inwhich abreviations are explain. But for my own part I prefer using abreviations used by the Reichswehr Rangliste than the pre-war abreviations. http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/798-common-abreviations-for-imperial-medals-orders/ Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
