Nice 100 Years Anniversay Medal of IR 116

[Kammi]

Hello!

I'm Andi from Germany. I'm 28 years old and i collect german imperial Militaria since i am a teenager. I'm new in the Forum and so i want to start my first topic and say Hello to all. 

When i was at a flea market i was able to purchase a nice 100 years anniversary Medal form Infantry Regiment Nr. 116 from Gießen. I don't think that the necklet was on the Meldal all the time. I think there was some kind of band on it. Its a massive Medal and made of high quality. Do you also have an example of this Medal to show?

So i think it's a nice find. What do you think?

 

Best wishes

Hello Kammi,

Welcome to the forum. Yes, the centennial medal is a nice one. Originally, it would have been suspended from another ring and a ribbon with a pin for attaching to clothing.

MfG,

Hey Chip!

 

Thanks for the Information about the ribbon. I will watch out for a complete piece and replace it then. But for now i am very happy with this.
