Xtender Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Dear friends, now is running auction on Ebay with "Military Order of Maria Theresa with brilliants" see link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Order-Of-The-Diamond-Maria-Theresia-Imperial-Austrian-Gold-Medal-Austria-Hungary-/281417501485?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4185ca4b2d This order is desribed as "old Antique Imperial Austrian order in highest RARITY. Magnificent Imperial Austrian Workmanship.", but that is not true! Is it copy made by KLENAU company with NO HISTORICAL VALUE. The seller (member of GMIC) describe himself as "not expert" but this is another lie....so be careful with bidding!
North Denmark Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Poor soul who bet 3800 USD! Also very strange that the pictures are so blurry. Thanks for the warning, although I had no plans of bidding ;)
Xtender Posted August 27, 2014 Author Posted August 27, 2014 And the lucky winner is maybe....himself
Elmar Lang Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 A few years ago a Grand Cross badge of this same order (and manufacture), mounted on a sash of the Order of the Crown of Italy, appeared on eBay; then sold before the "auction"'s end. By the way, it's typical, on eBay, to read remarks like "I'm not an expert, etc.etc.", after an apparently so-so scientifical or überdetaillierte description... Best wishes, E.L.
