New Saxon Ribbon Bar!

[Stogieman]

Negotiated purchase, post 1934 tab-back ribbon bar! Here’s what I see:

1914 EK2

Saxon St. Henry (assuming silver medal)

Saxon Allgemein Ehrenzeichen with Swords 

(alternatively Saxon-Altenburg Bravery Medal but I doubt this because of the St. Henry and Albert Order)

Saxon Albert Order with Swords (assuming 2. Kl)

Honor Cross with Swords 

Turkish War Medal

i suppose it’s possible the St. Henry could be an RK, but it feels like an enlisted bar. I’ve reached out to Daniel to see if he can find a match. We shall see!!

Nice one Rick, I would agree it's an NCO's bar. Are you sure that isn't some sort of Red Cross award at the end?

The last one may be Austro-Hungarian.

 

Maybe one of these:

1898 Jubilee Court Medal

1908 Jubilee Cross

Order of Leopold

If it is for enlisted men it won't be an Order of Leopold, which even for officers would be highly unlikely. I can't think of more than a handful of examples, all of whom had other distinguishing honours.

A Saxon enlisted man or officer would not be eligible for these awards.

 

I agree with Vince, given that it is a post-1934 ribbonbar is I think it likely we have a red cross decoration at the end.

 

Kind regards, Laurentius

Good Morning Gentlemen, thanks for all the input. Isn’t the TWM a red ribbon with two white stripes?

Thanks for the link! I see the difference so maybe a Red Cross medal after all. My thoughts were with the Albert Order he must have been promoted so maybe researchable. We shall see! In any event, a nice St. Henry Bar! More pictures when it arrives.

[Stogieman]

Arrived today, everything looks and feels correct. Couple more images 

[Stogieman]

Does anyone have a clue what the Red Cross medal could be? Thanks!

[VtwinVince]

That's a tough one, could even be an Ehrenzeichen fuer deutsche Volkspflege.

[Stogieman]

Thanks Vince!

Good Morning All! Thanks to Daniel, I was able to get this little St. Henry Bar from Germany! Nothing spectacular, but it fits into my niche.
