This is Vizeadmiral a. D. Hugo Louran's (1865-1931), as shown before here and here.

That's my picture. I made that one years ago! Disassembled it and sold off the pieces again.  The fun was the search.

Yeah I bet. Did you find all the original medals or were some copies/restrikes?

 

Still a great group and a great picture!

This is a case for all three Hanseatic crosses. Although it is not marked, it shows all the typical characteristics of the Rothe company (Vienna): It is assumed that it was awarded to Archduke Eugen of Austria (1863-1954), as it came together with other awards from his estate.

[graham]

saxcob, that is an amazing piece of history.

They were all originals on the bar. The Sachse Coburg Gotha has the incorrect clap however.

[VtwinVince]

Holy cow is that Rothe ensemble ever kool.

[chuck]

What metal did Rothe construct  ArchDukes Eugen crosses? are they made of silver or silvered copper?

They seem to be the standard types. Hard to tell whether they could have been replaced at some point in time.
