Kvart Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Hello, I've seen the medal lot who once belonged to Norwegian ambassador Lars Jacob Hvinden Jorstad (1894-1970). My question is whether he was awarded the Officer's or Knight's Cross of Order of Polonia Restituta, and which version. In a book from 1937 he states he has been made knight of Order of Polonia Restituta. I can therefore assume he was awarded the 1918-version, right? His miniature group includes the knight's cross (no rosette on ribbon). But among his full size decorations (which were not complete, some were missing; and it cannot be taken for granted that he was awarded these actual orders, they might have been added by a former custodian), was the officer's cross of Order of Polonia Restituta. Hence my question: is it possible to find out whether he was Officer or Knight of Order of Polonia Restituta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pfenig Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 To my knowledge there is no register of recipients of the Polonia Restituta. ... and yes in 1937 he would be awarded the 1918 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
