Where can I find a picture of a real one with the silver content mark?

[stogieman]

Well.....

....... you can't. The issued SBM was silver (parts unknown) and marked with the designer's name below the bust. Prussian Silver Laws were routinely ignored by Prussian Jewelers, Saxon Jewelers as well as Bavarians. One must be careful as there are no "absolutes" here......... just as (IMO) you will not find (authentic, period examples) of the flight badges with crowns on them.

OK, here's the back of the 4 medal bars that were originally pictured. The one with the '"rare" ribbon is hallmarked for Godet. Patrick, where can I pick up one of those wearer's copies?
