Hi,

Nice ribbon bar.

About the Oldenburg ribbon, it may be for the knight cross of the Oldenburg House and Merit Order of Duke Peter Friedrich Ludwig.

Christophe

the last ribbon may be the Sweden Schwert Orden too.

 

[Nicolas7507]

Thanks Christophe,

So many possibilities. I am losinh hope to ID this bar

[Paul C]

Yes, There is not enough uniqueness for an ID.

[HeikoGrusdat]

Did you buy it from a military dealer or was it a private purchase? Any information of family or location where it came from?

[Nicolas7507]

I bought  it from another collector, so no information sadly.

 

 

 

[HeikoGrusdat]

Nevertheless....it`s a nice one , keep it and enjoy

[Nicolas7507]

Yes,I will.

I love these colourful bars.

This is offtopic, but  I am getting some colonial postcards and coins from china ( Tsingtau etc...) soon. Is there a forum here, where I can post it?

[Nicolas7507]

I have  a question about another bar. Hopefully I can post it here?

The Brunwick Merit Cross ribon has swords attached, but a version with swords does not exist. Are the swords equalent to the Brunswick Frontkämpfer clasp?

Here is a pic.

Hi,

on this ribbon bar you should see the 4th ribbon ahead the Thrid. The Merit order is higher than Albert Order. And I don't like to see crosses on the BrK2.

[Nicolas7507]

Well, maybe the wrong order was a period mistake, I saw the merit order before the albert order on another bar, but the swords on the BrK2

[Deruelle]

Now you have to see the ribbon bar under blacklight to see if the ribbons are ok

Here is one ribbon bar with original ribbons

[Nicolas7507]

Thanks for the help, Deruelle

 

And nice bar

   There is no "Colonial" forum, however depending on what you have; there is the "China" forum including imperial era, "Coin" forum or the "Imperial German Research" forum for documents and photos.

Perfect, Thanks

[Nicolas7507]

I am quite sure by now that the last ribbon on 7 piece bar is the Schwarzburg Sonderhausen Honor Cross 3.Class upwards. A rare award.

That would make a look after an Identification worth looking.

I feel bad for not helping in the Identification, but I dont have the money for Dienstalterslisten.

HI Nicolas,

The last ribbon of your 7th ribbon bar is not for the Schwarzburg cross.

Here is one peacetime Schwarzburg honor ribbon on a saxon ribbon bar

Christophe

 

[Nicolas7507]

Oh, Youre righ't.

I did not see the middle blue stripe on a medal bar I found the ribbon on and thought it would be the same one than mine

[Nicolas7507]

Sorry, but I have to ask one question

As this a prewar bar, do,you think he held a position in the wehrmacht maybe as a Major- Colonel or POW Commander?

[Deruelle]

I have a doubt, like there is no Hindenburg cross on the bar so he probably died before 1934.
