The Traveling Circus!

Bored? I just about fell off my chair here. I'm guessing that Russian PLM as Napoleonic era? And I think our friend Rudy would like to see these Helms.

A Bavarian order of St Hubert with diamonds! 
This guy really has the holies of all holies!

[Stogieman]

I believe this is a Bavarian Hubert Order

I even thought you went to a museum but looking at the photos it was even better than the museum.😵 Please let us know when this gentleman opens one. Could you please also post more medalbars if you have taken pictures of them?

No, it's Bavarian allright, but the St. Hubertus Kleinood is the one shown two posts up (in the version with Brillianten, and correctly ID-ed by member 91-old-inf-reg. ). This is a Verdienstorden der bayerische Krone.

 

Fantastic pieces, many thanks for sharing.

Kind regards, 

Sandro

PLM with Crown

Another PLM! I will say this. There’s no substitute for handling and examining original pieces. Once you’ve done this you’ll never mistake a copy again. The craftsmanship and gold work on these was incredible. The details, especially the eagles was simply amazing!

[Stogieman]

And now, for the pieces I really liked as Saxony is my passion! Early Albert’s Cross with Enameled Medallions!

[Stogieman]

Saxon Merit Order Breast Star. My friend has had some negative feedback on this piece. It looked and felt right to me. Any feedback would be appreciated 

[Stogieman]

Early Silver St. Henry Medal

[VtwinVince]

More outstanding material. I like the looks of that VOmS breast star, and I would be quite interested to know the weight of that St. Henry Medal to compare with my 1870 example.

Hi Vince! Will ask him to please get us a weight on that one

And last but certainly not least, The Holy Grail for me! Saxon St. Henry Knight’s Cross circa 1815-1870.
