peter monahan Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 (edited) TigerThey somehow look French to me - but just a guess. The cross - white with the gold edges and "little ball thingies" at the points is the same as for the Legion of Honour but the rest is not. The French are also very found of palm circlets like those in the center. Kev is right: the suspension on the big one looks damaged or dodgy. French civilian - maybe municipal or a society of some sort - would be my guess, if not cheaper copies of something. But for $16.00 they might br fun to pick up as curiosities!My tuppence worth!Peter Edited July 7, 2006 by peter monahan
Kev in Deva Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 (edited) Hallo Gentlemen: I think maybe there is a Belgian / Brazilian connection they too were fond of balls on the end of the crosses too Kevin in Deva on ball watch Edited July 7, 2006 by Kev in Deva
