Imperial commemorative or... ?

[Hauptmann]

Hi all,

Have had this forever and a day... or at least twenty years, whichever comes first. Would love to know what it is, what it's for, and perhaps even if it's at all valuable or not? I simply no nothing about it... other than the fact that it comes with one heck of a long ribbon!!!!

Thanks,

Dan

That is a medal commorating the one hundredth anniversary of 2. Nassauisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr.88 in 1908. Nice long ribbon, it looks like it may have been worn around the neck by a veteran.

Hi Dan,

Many thanks for that info! Most I've known about it in all the years since I got it! And all in the course of one little night.

So I take it it's more of a veterans medal then an official award? Is it worth much or just a trinket basically? Got it in a big box of mostly TR stuff a looooooong time ago... just always been a mystery sitting in the case with the rest.

Thanks!

Dan
