Well, to find Military Service Cross for Officers for 35/40 years shouldn’t be so hard task to accomplish. Finger crossed.

One small addition to the quite complex information. Military Service Cross for NCOs for 18 years (2^nd issue 1867-1890) existed only till 1869 then it was discontinued, which makes it most valuable collector´s item among Military Service Crosses for NCOs as it was awarded only for very short period of time.
