kasle Posted December 27, 2019 Posted December 27, 2019 I am wondering which kind (or type) of Johanniter is this one. Thanks in advance for any help.
922F Posted December 27, 2019 Posted December 27, 2019 Generic cheap type manufacture [note inappropriate size suspension crown, open ring between crown & ribbon loop, lack of devices between arms, and uni-face enamel]. Similar crosses appear regularly for sale on Italian eBay, usually with red ribbons. Very likely what Guy Stair Sainty and his ilk identify as insignia of a self-styled St. John organization.
DarthZealous Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Definitely from the myriad, and often internecine, phalanx of false orders of St John out there. You can tell by the poor quality of the workmanship and the lack of heraldic symbols between the arms of the cross, although that latter point is not always a uniform feature of the false orders.
