The medals were sold to a coin shop who scraps gold.They call me sometimes when they get militaria, was a good day!

Pretty incredible findAny hallmarks on the pieces? I especially like the Friedrich Order.

I absolutely love those Friedrich Orders from Württemberg. High on my wish-list.

Great stuff, but honestly does not look like a group to me with that French stuff in it. Rather a collection?!

Agreed

I very much doubt it is a grouping, too. Someone's collection, as you say.

I do not think that officially issued badges (crosses) to these Württemberg orders were commonly, if ever, hallmarked.

Rare and beautiful pieces - congratulations!

Thanks

Thaks for the input, i figured the wurttemburg medals were a group and the itaian medals and the french medals were baught from different people, the same guy sold all of them to my friend.Thanks for the help!
