Last is a Prinzen. This, like the flyer's badge seems a bit heavy and thick; it weighs 14 grams and is almost 4 mm thick.Comment

As for the Brunswick MVK, I was surprised the first time I saw one how small they are compared to other similar medals from the era. I can see how you would think it was a prinzen size.Comment
