    agog!

    Looks like a Landwehr LS cross and on the breast-a Brunswick EA cross 1st class-but where is the 2nd class then?
    Perhaps a brunswickish commemorative day medal??

      Could it be a Saxe-Coburg-Gotha war memorial cross 1st class? The dimensions of the cross certainly point towards that possibility.

        The second medal with the swords above it is from either Reuss or Waldeck. I can't tell which when the photo is this small. No idea what the small cross is after the Hindenburg Cross, either. Can you enlarge just the medals?

        The cross on his pocket is so small I suspect it is a tinnie of some type.

            I agree, S-C-G, is the most likely pin-back cross.
