I've borrowed this cross from a friend to identify it. I have no clue what this might be, even it is Imperial or not. It is enameled and made of silver and looks like a miniature for a medal-chain. Any ideas?

Nice one, Jens
This is an Honor Cross for the Baltic Landeswehr. Freikorps era. They were issued with and without swords, and were initially intended as a breast badge, but some were made to be affixed to a medal bar.
Very Baltic looking! Reminds me of a Latvian or Polish regimental badge.Comment

Baltic honour cross
Hello ,
I can't add much more towards this one then that ERic already mentioned but when you are interested => there was a good article published some time ago about these awards in the BDOS magazine ( when wanted I can look the issue up for you and you can search it or I will gladly send you a copy of the particular pages. )
