World War Commemorative Medals

[gjw]

Hey all, here's my modest collection of official commemorative medals of the Central Powers.

 

All I need is the Bulgarian Medals for Non-Combatants and Next of Kin 

 

Stay well my friends

Nice, I see you have the somewhat scarce Hungarian NC medal.

Thanks Vince.....I really need to find the more scarce Bulgarian ones I'm missing.

 

Also, not sure if the Honor Cross for Next of Kin was ever on an Austrian style ribbon.  

 

Thanks again for the kind words

Gentlemen!

 

I can add this one with a quite scarce ladies-bow.

 

Regards

Hi folks,

 

then I will add some documents for commemorative medals / crosses from my collection:

Document for the "Flandern-Kreuz" (Flandern-cross) of Hauptmann Bernhard von Francois

 

 

And here is the group of the conductor Johannes Klein in Berlin.
Klein became the Austrian, Hungarian and Bulgarian commemorative medal, all refering documents survived, including the legitimation for the Hungarian one.
