lambert Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Gents. I usually do not ask these things about prices medals. I saw a group of medals possibly a veteran of the Franco-Prussian War and World War Primera in a kind of old window ... I have not seen rare medals for the price was so high,( $2.235 Euro) . Is there anything that I have not seen or know this group? any comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul wood Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 It's the Bravery Medal with DEM TAPFERN on reverse very nice group. must have been close to 90 when he received the Hindenburg CrossNot a totally stupid asking price.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixhs Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 he got the 70KDM for combatants not the hindy. The bar is a typical early made bar. The MKF medal is very rare... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambert Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 wow! I saw this silver treasure!.. I did a quick search and this medal is estimated between 1200-2400 euros, not bad. Lambert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambert Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 I guess I should correct, I believe that is not a veteran of WWI, only the Franco-Prussian War, then probably one EK 1870 is missing. Will be a very interesting group when restored .. :love: Thanks Lambert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Great group, and the Baden collectors are very 'hart am Ball' in Germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Danner Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 To confirm, Sgt. Leonhard Nürnberger did receive the 1870 EK2 along with his Karl Friedrich MVM. Since there's a Centenary Medal, the bar dates after 1897, so the 25-year oakleaves are also missing, if they were ever mounted. The Kriegsteilnehmer-Ehrenkreuz and the Bavarian ribbons probably don't belong with the medal bar, though they could have belonged to a relative.

ixhs Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 may be the bar now belongs to mr. volle. 70 MKF medals are definitely rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
