VtwinVince Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 I have a cased example Rick, will dig it out for scrutiny. I've been looking at that example on fleabay and some things I like, some I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinpon590 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Hi ! I have already see some case for this medal on several auction or to sell, but never possess one... this one is stamped C.E. Kunath / Dresden (woeschler orden) : This is a box as presented above, but for silver grade (I don't remember where the picture come from... Maybe Kuenker's auction...) : 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinpon590 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Furthermore, Kuenker offered for sale a lot of Carola Medals... 1st type (1892-1915) : Bronze Silver : On bow ribon : 2nd type (1915-1918) : bronze with clasp 1914-16 for men : bronze with clasp 1914-16 for women : And silver grade, on bow ribon, with clasp 1914-16 for women : Clasp created May 22th 1916. Looking very similar to the british clasps on crimea medals... Edited November 28, 2023 by pinpon590 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
