Prussian life saving medal

Please, is this 3rd or 4th model? Thank you!

While I would like to see the other side as well, I am pretty sure this is the 4th model.

Thank you! Can you please tell me what exactly makes the difference between both models? Exactly on that page I saw the information but did not get it.

Third model on top, fourth model on bottom. One easy indicator.

I am a novice on these, but have both a first and third model. The fine details make for an interesting study. The dates of issue have to been taken into consideration as well, when compared to the whole medal bar.

Yours is the fourth model (1907 - 1918)

The petal of the rosette at 4 o'clock on your medal looks the same as the other four, whereas on the third model that petal is struck much weaker.

Another indicator is the 'G' of "König": On your medal the G is complete, but on the third model there is a gap at the top.

thank you very much both of you
