    The Saxon Albert Order to the Japanese


    Recommended Posts

    Gentlemen, I received a Saxon Albert order awarded to a Japanese major on the occasion of the Chinese New Year. The owner was called "Kumataro Oyagi". He accompanied the Prince of Saxony to Japan in 1909, and then followed him to the German colony in Asia, which is my hometown Qingdao, and obtained this order in 1911. But it’s a pity that I didn’t find a picture of him, but I found another Japanese to get a picture of Albert

    What makes me sad is the slight injury on the back at 9 o'clock. .:(

    The breast star order does not belong to this Japanese. .

    Do you know the number of Cavaliers Grade 1 Albert Order sold?

    Hi,

    What a nice cross you have there. A very nice gold-plated silver cross from Scharffenberg. Only 695 crosses were awarded till 1914.

    Major Oyagi Kumataro received it on 6 May 1911

    The star is very nice too. It is for the commander cross 1st class with swords

    Congrats

    Christophe

    wow, great stuff! But can somebody please explain to me, why there are swords on the star and none on the cross it self? Is this comon in Saxony? I knew the other way around in Brunswick. I am looking forward to reading your answers on this one.

    This is normal, the breast star is like I said above for the commander class 1st class with X. There is nothing happened with the knight cross with crown without swords.

    Thanks, I guess I am tired, I haven't noticed that this was a knights cross, but now, sure makes sence! 

    I think you must have misunderstood what I mean, the breast star and the order of the cross do not belong to the same person. I just show the two Albert orders that I have:P

    One small correction.

    the star is for the commander 1st class with swords on the ring. A rare class for the AO.
