    The appearance of the AOOK is certainly more consistent with a gold one, as opposed to how I would expect a silver-gilt piece to photograph. With respects to the medallion being upside down????? no clue, might fall into the post liquid lunch category. Anyone's guess.

    Now, where's the reverse of the ribbon bars?

    Henry the Lion is one of the finest orders I know.

    It would exactly fit into my showcase :D

    But I think you won`t get it below 1000 Euro :blush:

    And here are some pictures I got today from Mr. Zeige.

    Hessen-Darmstadt: Philippsorden, Ritterkreuz 2. Klasse - obverse

    Hi Eitze the Oldenburg'scher Hausorden looks very promising. It would nice to know the weight, since it's in Gold. I have seen one like this being sold at Thies; it was spectacular and had also swords "am Ring". In reality these look much much better.

    Here I am posting some better images of the Feldspangen being offered on the Zeige's auction. I don't like the first spange: the needle on the back looks "modern" and the combination quite "extravagant" to say the least. The second one looks better; devices, combinations... only thing on the back you can notice that the bar was prolonged. Any further comments?

    Ciao,

    Hi,

    Who bought the ribbon bars ? I think the second ribbon bar belonged to Oberst Krause from I.R. Nr. 185. I have a photo of him wearing the same ribbon bar. The only thing "wrong " to me is the wreath of the Karl Friedrich Verdienst Orden. May be my eyes are not wide open, but it seems to be painted. Thanks for your comments.

    Regards

    Rick,

    If you're referring to lot no. 193:

    "Sachsen. Milit?r St. Heinrichs-Orden. Ritterkreuz, Silber vergoldet und emailliert, mit band im verleihungsetui"

    then the hammer price was 1050 Euros.
