ordersandmedals.ro Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Hello, if there is someone who can help me to identify this Slovakian order case? The writing part was erased during the communist era. The order was awarded in 1932 to a Romanian colonel (at the time). Hope the photos can reveal something helpful. Thank you. P.S.: The shape left on the inner material resembles on the Order of the War Victory Cross. However is not in concordance with the date written on the back (1932) since this order was awarded in 1945....

ordersandmedals.ro Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 Solved, it is a case for the Order of the War Cross, 3rd class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utopis Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Do you mean the War victory cross? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utopis Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Actually, that's not the case of this award. The silhouette on the velvet shows that such a cross was placed in this case but they don't belong together. Also the case is inscribed with 1932 on the reverse but the War Victory Cross was established in 1939. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utopis Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) This is how the case looks like. (not my collection) Edited May 31, 2014 by utopis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ordersandmedals.ro Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 I couldn't find a case with the writing on it. All of them (pictures of cases) are without any inscription, only the heraldic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
