Mervyn Mitton Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I have been asked to identify this order and give a value - perhaps someone can assist ?

JBFloyd Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Baden Order of the Zahringen Lion, knight first class with swords. The latest OEK lists it at 1350 Euros in gold and 1050 Euros in silver-gilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Right, except of there aren't any real "gilt" ones. It should actually read "Doublé" which is something different than a galvanic gilt. I'd not touch any galvanic gilt Zähringer cross.... (and this may be one, looking different from what we're used to see). It's to easy to gild a silver 2nd class. For such an "unsure" cross, I'd honestly not pay more than what a knights cross 2nd class goes for - which is 400,- to 600,- Euros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
