But it seems you're somewhat into the Bravery Medals, beautiful selection you have, do you know if it would be possible to ID these two groups? The ribbon mounted one was bought from Mynthuset appr 30 years ago, at that time I was told they came from the estate of Hjalmar P:son Janek but I have ben unable to get this confirmed by photos, lists or other sources, is it something you have some info about? I believe they had his fullsize group as well which were sold before I visited them. I understand that very few, less than 5, were awarded with crown around 1890-1900? Regards, Lars I don't know if this has been solved in a later answer but I also believe that the first mini medal bar might belong to Nyström. I found a notice in https://xn--portrttarkiv-kcb.se/advancedsearch //Stefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 ...but also Stålberg could be OK: Stålberg; arméns rulla 1920: GM tf, Pers LSO 2.kl, R R S:t St O 2. kl, Off Pers de l’Ip, Pers förtj GM I am not that good how the Persian orders might look like. /Stefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larsb001 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 (edited) Stefan, tanks for the feedback. As mentioned, when I bought the group I was given the provenience, and this could of course be wrong. So Nyström could be an possibility, but it's mentioned that he got the Gold medal, and not the Gold medal with Crown. Who knows? And now to something else! Not so long ago I got two different examples of one of the rarer miniatures, the Badge of the Herald of the Order of the Sword (Tjänstetecken för Härold), both in gold. They are identical on both front and reverse ... These go very well together with the similar badge for the Order of the North Star ... And again very well together with the similar badge of the Order of Wasa ... And last, very well together the the Badge of the State Herald of the Order of the Seraphim ...

JohanH Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Here are two more with royal commemorative medals: The first one is a bit unusual since it has two of the kings medal. From different kings and on different ribbons. The other has just the commemorative medal of 1948 and the one from 1967. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larsb001 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Another nice group, attributed to Carl Frithiof Dahl (27 July 1869 - 22 August 1952). On the group we have The Order of the North Star (Gold 18ct), the Order of Vasa (Gold 18ct, crown gilded), the Royal Swedish Sailing Society Commemorative Medal 1830-1930 (silver), the Swedish Sailing Society Merit Medal in Gold (Gold 23ct) and the Stockholm Yacht Club excellent service Medal (Silver gilt). So a group with some rarely seen miniatures. It's allways good to be able to find info on a group, the following text is not mine, but taken from Wikipedia; Carl Frithiof Dahl was a Swedish engineer and builder. The family moved to Stockholm in 1871 and he graduated in 1890 from Byggnadsyrkesskolan Bysan at the Technical School in Stockholm. He was approved in 1897 by the city's building committee as a master builder with permission to erect buildings in the capital. He received his bachelor's degree in 1904 and in 1905 entered the office of Master Mason, where he became Master Mason number 202. Dahl then practiced for a time in an architect's office before establishing himself as a master builder in Stockholm. In 1912–1913 he collaborated with architect Folke Zettervall where he drew up and signed the floor plans for the property Hornblåsaren 6 (Strandvägen 63). The first major task was the Värtagasverket. Among the buildings erected by Dahl, Stockholm City Hall , the Royal Dramatic Theater and the Byströmska villa (Prince Carl's Palace on Djurgården) are notable above all, as well as PUB's department store at Hötorget and PUB's department store at Hornsgatan. In 1906 he became a member of the Masonry Office and in 1917 he was elected to the board of the office and became its treasurer. In 1908 he became a Knight of the Order of Vasa and in 1923 a Knight of the Order of the North Star. In the years 1908 to 1909, Dahl built his own city villa Sånglärkan 9 at Baldersgatan 3 in Lärkstaden. He hired architect Folke Zettervall, who designed a powerful brick facade. Dahl was a well known profile in the sailing world and a member of KSSS and one of the founders of Stockholms Yachtklubb. His interest in sailing and the sea is reflected in the facade decorations on the town villa at Baldersgatan 3. The gate is flanked by two sculptures showing a sailboat in a stormy sea and a light house among high waves. On the balcony railing rest two dolphins carved in stone and originally there was a wind vane in the shape of a sailing ship on the gable tip. He was also a cross-country skier, active in equestrian sports and one of the pioneers in cycling. Dahl married Olga Pedersen in 1899. The couple had three children, Ragnar (born 1903), Folke (born 1908) and Yngve (born 1914). His wife died at Sophiahemmet in 1945 and he himself died in 1952 and was buried on August 29 of the same year in the Northern Crematorium at the Northern Cemetery . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a very nice miniature bar! I believe it was for sale at Tradera for a while but unfortunately I missed it. Did you get it there? I also think it was auctioned at Myntauktioner around 2015.
