Hauptmann Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) Just won this one tonight for my sister (from another mother). I just finished up the ID's... hope I nailed them all. Any chance for ID'ing the original recipient on this one? Only pics I have at the moment (sellers). Vatican Equestrian Order Of The Holy Sepulchre Of Jerusalem with Crown. Reuss Honor Cross 2nd Class Gold. Württemberg Order of the Crown Knight. Bavarian Merit Order 3rd Class Without Swords. Prussia Order of the Crown 3rd Class Knights Cross. Prussia Order of the Red Eagle 3rd Class Knights Cross. Saxony Albrecht Order 1st Model (1851 to 1875) 1st Class Knights Cross. Any help deeply appreciated! Thanks!

VtwinVince Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 That's a really great Kettchen, and I would think has a good chance of being ID'd. 1
Hauptmann Posted February 2, 2021 Author Posted February 2, 2021 Many thanks! Who tends to ID such things nowadays? I so miss Rick... he'd have taken one look at it and I'm positive if it could be ID'd he could likely do it right off the top of his head. When we lost him it was like losing the library at Alexandria and then some all over again. Anyhow, is there another section I should post it in for possible ID help? Many thanks in advance! Dan
dedehansen Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Hi Dan, may I ask, why you think it is the Albrechtsorden 1. Modell? The 1st Model should show another head, see below. The württ. Kronenorden is a Ritterkreuz mit den Löwen. Kind regards Andreas

The night we got it I did searches online to try to ID each piece. If I'm incorrect on this one please let me know what it is? Any help is deeply appreciated. Many thanks! Dan
dedehansen Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Hi Dan, it is an Albrechtsorden Ritterkreuz 1. class, but not the early vision, it think it is this model. Kind regards Andreas 1
CRBeery Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 What a fantastic piece! I’m surprised there is no Century medal but this may be a style choice in only having “ the good stuff on a bar”. I hope a name can be found.

Kind regards Andreas Many thanks Andreas! Deeply appreciate the help. I wish I had better references on Imperial that got into more detail. Just can't afford them now... prices on them have gone insane. Had to fly mostly on the net but some really had me stumped for a good while.

But keeping my fingers crossed that someone can ID it. Be so nice to be able to put a name to it.
