For Research Unknown Ribbon?

[Alan]

Hi Gents,

I picked up this ribbon with a small lot and I was wondering if anyone knows which order it may belong to?

Width 25mm Length 1000mm

Many Thanks

[Stuka f]

To me it belongs to a carnival order.

I have to leave now, but I'll try to find a example later on today or tomorrow.

cheers

I don't recognize it. Perhaps something from Saxony because of the green.

Do you have any particular reason to believe it's military? What else was in the lot? Is it silk? Black light test?

Carnival order is a possibility. As is some "unofficial" sports award. I've seen the same color combination (except in 22mm width) for sale on a UK trophy vendor's site.

Hi Alan,

This ribbon is possibly for a post-war Austrian veteran medal. Here are some examples on this one ribbon bar I have.

Kind regards

Hi Alan,

what do you think about medals for shooting clubs?

That would be great, thanks.

I had the same thought Paul. It did come with a small lot of Sachsen items, but I could not find a match

with the usual award ribbon references.

It came with a small lot of awards from Sachsen. I don't think it is silk and it did pass the black light test.

Good on the black light test. Could turn out to be something interesting...

[Naxos]

another Saxon option

[Chris Boonzaier]

this kind of thing could also be used for student association bands, or watch fobs in student assoc colors...

[Stuka f]

...or sports medals.. like also stated!

I can't find any examples right now....
