WWI Bavarian 5 Place Medal Bar

[Claudius]

The Jubilee medal dates to 1905,and i believe it denotes the 70th anniversary of Prinzregent Luitpold Karl Joseph Wilhelm Ludwig von Bayern's entry into the Bavarian Army. I am suprised the LS medal is onlya 9 year medal. perhaps he got out prior to The Great War but re-enlisted after the start of thewar

as has been stated a VERY nice NCO bar

It's the 1905 Jubilee Medal on military (red ribbon with green edging) for serving or retired officers, or enlisted that served beyond their first term of mandatory service.

The 1911 issued medal has the same obverse, but with the shield motif on the reverse with the 1905 date. (no, I don't really know why)

But in the end; Yes a very nice bar to a (presumably) salty NCO.

Your MVK is produced by "Deschler" in München (Munich). It is also marked with a "D." at the swords.

There are (between 1914-18) just 5 producers of the MVK. 3 of them had marked their MVKs.

Show a picture. Than I can help.
