    I can't seem to find mention or even a pic of a 15 year DA for Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach. Does it exist at all? Does anyone have one to show?

    Can anyone help me fill the gap?

    Unfortunately, I cannot help you fill the gap and never handled one, but they do exist. I have several books on Sachsen-Weimar awards, and they even have pictures...

     

    However, I think I have never seen one "in the wild"! For some odd reason, these must be ultra rare?!

     

    :wacky:

    I stand corrected - we actually have seen one here, seventeen(!) years ago...

     

    :speechless1:

     

    Or, as Jörg Nimmergut price-guides it: 265,- Euro. If only one was available!

    Question...

     

    I read somewhere that war service, 1914-1918 counted double for award purposes, specifically the second and third class Bavarian medals.

     

    My understanding is that these two medals were awarded to other ranks only, and thus, a soldier with Bavarian service 1914-1919 qualified for award of the third class medal for 9 years service.

     

    True?
