pinpon590 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 (edited) Hi guys ! Here is my last acquisition : a nice wurrtemberg military merit order knight cross : The cross is in silver gilt. Does someone have an idea of the maker ? Please show yours ! Edited May 20, 2012 by pinpon590 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palencia Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Congrats, a lovely piece. The manufacturer is probably the Koniglichen Munzamt in Stuttgart. To distinguish a Friedrichsorden of E. Fohr of an exemplar of the National Mint is relatively simple, but a Wurttemberg MVO....is more difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saschaw Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 From what I understand from the stunning Raff/Klein book, this is a cross by the Stuttgart mint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saschaw Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I'm not sure if the Hüsken cross might be a mint cross with a repaired suspension. Hard to tell from the pictures. If it isn't, it's a wearer's copy - in best case. The book I'm referring to is "Klein, Ulrich und Raff, Albert" - "Die Württembergischen Medaillen von 1864 - 1933". You can order it (and the other volumes, covering the earlier medals) at Bretzendorfer's: www.bretzendorfer.de Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
