IrishGunner Posted January 2, 2014 Share 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.

Elmar Lang Posted April 3, 2014 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter J Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 A sligtly earlier version, 1813-14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Lang Posted April 3, 2014 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
