Chris Dale Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 I took some photos a while back at the Bavarian Army Museum in Ingolstadt. They've got just about every medal awarded to the Bavarian army on display. I wish I'd photographed them all but here's some I did take. Hope you enjoy them, Cheers Chris For more information see- Bayerisches-Armeemuseum.de Neues Schloss Paradeplatz 4 85049 Ingolstadt
redeagleorder Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 A fine collection of bavarian decorations. Some of the Luitpold medals aren't very common either. Matthew
Chris Dale Posted August 27, 2012 Author Posted August 27, 2012 (edited) Glad you like them. From my notes, I think the Luitpold medals were from left to right- standard medal, with crown and the years 1839-1909, gold with crown and the years 1821-1911 and with crown and the years 1821-1911. Does that sound correct? Cheers Chris Edited August 28, 2012 by Chris Dale
ccj Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 I'd like to know more about the Luitpold medals. I've not seen the crowned versions.
