Yankee Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Dear members Here is the Honor Cross 2nd class, as I understand there are dangerous copies of this order. If anybody has the knowledge to comment on this one please do so. It has been in a private collection for about forty years. The quality is excellent and the blue enamel looks to be the correct shade to the orginal examples but still.... Thanks for any opinions in advance. Sincerely Yankee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankee Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hi Chris Rudi already knows my German writing skills has a lot to be desired. Unfortunately that small body of water called the Atlantic will make it difficult for a close examination. Since such a small amount were ever manufactured and even less awarded, safe to assume there was only one jeweler without the slightest variations since it was only awded for a few years? Any idea how many were manufactured in the 1st Class Honor Cross & 2nd Class Honor Cross? Thanks Rudi. Sincerely Yankee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudius Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 What is really needed here, is for this piece to be compared to a known original with a known provenance. Either another private owner or a museum. As for myself -like the post-revolution Anastasia story- I want to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently a respected member on this forum had given the Honor Cross a favorable review. He had the good fortune to examine the Brabant pieces that belonged to the Grand Duke in Darmstadt.
