Bavarian Medal ID?

Found this photo buried on my hard drive.  Anyone recognize the gold cross between the Hindenburg Cross and the long service medal?

Bavarian Security service award for 20 years,

and a very very nice example at that! The original ribbon is great!

The ribbon in the link you sent is slightly different.  The one in the link has a thin blue edge stripe outside of the white, while the one on the medal bar has the white on the outside.  

 

Bit of a long story, but the ribbon on the bar is one of my weird research interests.

You’re right, simple mistake. Although that being said, it probably just came down to the manufacturer of the bar didn’t have that specific ribbon in stock and use a similar one as a stand in, but that’s just conjecture on my part

I've got a handful of ribbon bars with that on on it.  It haunted me for years.  I eventually found a medal bar with that ribbon used with a Bavarian veteran's association medal attached.  That's been my only lead, and the medal bar leaves a little bit of doubt because the medals clip on similar to this one.
