IrishGunner Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Another common KuK medal seen in the photo thread that doesn't have a good topic of it's own... Awarded to soldiers, regardless of rank, who had been with a combatant unit for at least twelve weeks and who had actually served at the front. Edited January 2, 2014 by IrishGunner
medalman90 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I've never seen one in its origional box before. Nice set.

Elmar Lang Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 I have to admit that the inscribed, original cardboard case fitted for both the decoration and the Bandspange is quite rare to see. Any inscription or maker's mark on the lid's inside or under the case? Congratulations, E.L.
Elmar Lang Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Well... this is the "Metallenes Armeekreuz" a.k.a. Kanonenkreuz. The Karl-Truppenkreuz was clearly inspired by this famous decoration. Best wishes, E.L.
Peter J Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Elmer, you're of course absolutely correct. I'll try not to be as sloppy next time
