Oldenburger EK1 Equivalent

[JensF.]

Hi again,

here is a Oldenburger Friedrich-August-Kreuz 1. Klasse, another equivalent to the EK1. It is made of blackened iron and has got a pinback.

Another nice scan! See also inthe Imperial Archive, "Crosses That Aren't Iron" from 29 April, showing much smaller obverses and reverse of this cross, the Brunswick ernst August 1st, and Mecklenburg-Schwerin Friedrich Franze 1st.

Here's a nice screwback version made of brass:

A-Ha! Brass! Nice one Eric.
Any makers' mark on that medal perhaps?
Cheers,
