Looks like Keibel to me

Although the marks on these photos are unreadable...

P.S. Another british group?

Yes, he was a Captain in the Royal Engineers awarded the Military Cross for service at Murmansk, 1919:

He was a signal officer and not a "combat" officer. I have wondered if this is why he received the St. Anne without swords.

I have been told that this St. Anne is in "yellow gold".

Many British officers not involved in combat duty received Ordes without swords.

These will be listed as Order of ...

when issued with swords these are listeed (or gazetted) as Order of..... with Swords.
