German medal bar with austrian medals

[dedehansen]

Hi Gents,

I got this nice photo from a German Sergeant wearing two austian medals I´ve never seen before.

Every help appreciated.

 

Kind regards

Could be one of these?

Closer then your first try, but I don´t think so.

Not only the agraphe is different.

Cheers

Andreas,

I suggest that they are not medals, bur rather a version of a 'kappenabzeichen' mounted on ribbons.

First one looks very much like 1. Armee  Christmas 1914 badge, and the second one looks similar, but so far unidentified.

Regards,

Ian

Exactly what I was referring to. Although, I would go as to say that the pieces being worn are probably modified from the original badges and are of a 'solid' construction as opposed to the normal 'pressed' kapenabzeichen. This would be so that they to provide a little more weight when being worn as shown.
