    Franco-Prussian War Medal Group

    Hello

    What is the third medal in this Franco-Prussian War Medal group? I suspect Landwehr but I can't find an example in red like this one.

    Thanks

    I think it may be a Landwehr Service Award 1st class.

      James,
      Found this on the net. Not exact but similar:

      'Grand Duchy of Baden Reserve Infantry Long Service award'

        They are the same letters with two crosses in the colors of Baden, so it looks like it's a correct identification. Can anyone add info regarding the enamel version(?) mounted on a ribbon bar?

          I have seen Prussian enamel versions before, however the ribbon is incorrect, as it is for a Prussian long service. So I say the bar is completed with a rarer not correct medal.

            I agree, should be a Prussian award. The enamel ones are nice and much scarcer.

              Thanks for your advice and comments. It is on the hook type bar so easy to change to a Prussian XV award or similar.

                  I have also been able to get absolute confirmation on this.
                  Grand Duchy of Baden, Landwehr service award (1st pattern) awarded 1877 to 1914.
