1st class order of the cross of liberty

[AleksiL]

Hi

i recently acquired an first class of the cross of liberty from 1918, its very similiar to the one in Jani Tiainens book, about a replacement one made in germany in 1920s, but mine has a finnish centerpiece, could this be an prototype?

But it is an replacement from the 1920s by godet because the original went missing. How many of the 33 germans who got the 1st class wouldve ordered a custom made for the lost one? Theres one example in Jani tiainens Kunniamerkit book. I also asked Jani and he told me it is also made by godet but mine is a bit better quality. Ive got it with the 1918 freedoms medal etc
