Dave Danner Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I don't know when the Japanese Emperor awarded the order, but the Prussian King approved it in the Ordensfest 1900 in January of that year. A large number of Japanese awards were approved on this date. I cleaned it up a little for easier reading.
