Stogieman Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 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?
Claudio Posted June 8, 2006 Author Posted June 8, 2006 Hi Stogie,I didn't receive them yet.Here's the reverse of the ZVO.Ciao,Claudio
Claudio Posted June 8, 2006 Author Posted June 8, 2006 Scharzburg-Sonderhausen, 2. Kl. mit Eichenbruch... in Gold!
Wild Card Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Henry the Lion looks good - a nice ?fat and happy? Siebrecht horse and proper hallmark. Probably dates 1900 - 08.
eitze Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Henry the Lion is one of the finest orders I know. It would exactly fit into my showcase But I think you won`t get it below 1000 Euro Greetings eitze
Stogieman Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 I expect that many of these will be going for 1000- Euro and more, plus 25% premium!
eitze Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 And here are some pictures I got today from Mr. Zeige.Hessen-Darmstadt: Philippsorden, Ritterkreuz 2. Klasse - obverse
eitze Posted June 12, 2006 Posted June 12, 2006 Here we got Oldenburg: Haus- und Verdienstorden, Ritterkreuz 1. Klasse - obverse
Claudio Posted June 14, 2006 Author Posted June 14, 2006 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,Claudio
Stogieman Posted June 14, 2006 Posted June 14, 2006 Up-close and personal and these bars don't seem to make sense....
Deruelle Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 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.RegardsChristophe
Stogieman Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Can anybody tell me what the cased St. Henry RK brought? I didn't jot down the item number. Thanks! Rick
Great Dane Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 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./Mike
Stogieman Posted June 29, 2006 Posted June 29, 2006 Thanks Mike, pretty fair, even with the premium..
