Freiwillige Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Dear gentlemen, could you please help to ID neck order and second order of this military (?) official? CDV is from 1890s, I assume, and was made in Paris. Neck order - ??? Breast decorations: 1. Croix d'officier de la Légion d'honneur 2. ??? 3. British Crimea Medal with two official clasps and strange upper clasp 4. Ottoman Mecidiye Nişanı, 4th or 5th class. 5. Russian Imperial Order of Saint Anna, 3rd grade. Is it possible to identify this Monsieur? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freiwillige Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share Posted November 16, 2018 Any ideas on the branch of service of this gemtleman judging from the uniform he wears? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Dane Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I have zero knowledge of uniforms, but to me it looks non-military... probably an ambassador or similar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayern Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Hello If the buttons have a bundle of branches with an axe in the middle ,the fascist emblem , with two branches of foliage surrounding it the uniform may be of a French diplomatic around 1900 . not an ambassador because the ambassadors hat carried white ostrich feathers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
