    I think he was an former hanoverian officer now in saxonian service.

    Saxonian Zivilverdienstorden Ritterkreuz 1th class

    Iron cross 2nd class 1870

    RAO 4th class

    Dienstauszeichnungskreuz

    Kriegsdenkmünze 1870 / 71

    Hanoverian Guelphen - Orden Ritterkreuz

    Langensalza - Medaille

    Austria Eiserne Krone Ritterkreuz

    Is this a challenge for you or to easy ?

    That is Constantin von Schnehen (1829-1915). In 1866 he was in the Hannoverian Guard Husar Regiment. In 1867 he joined the Saxon Garde Reiter Regiment. His last assignment was as commander of Husar. R. 19. from 19.03.1874-27.01.1882. That regiment was named the 2. Reiter Regiment until 17.12.1875.

    BTW: That is a great looking bar.

    I hope it still exists somewhere and its owner knows the identity.

    Hi Claudius,

    as he died 1915 most of his orders were returnable, so

    I don´t think that his medal bar exists complete any more.

    Regards

    Andreas
