saschaw Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 That's a nice one and I would have probably obtained it as well! Henning Volle, on the basis of Neal O'Connor's researches, gives only 1654 awards(!) on the "red ribbon" für daheim erworbenes Verdienst... and to be honest, I cannot even remember the last single mounted one I've seen!

graham Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Great cross. I have an unmounted one, although I am not sure about the ribbon: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
