ribbon bar

[Noor]

Hi,

Here is one ribbon bar what just arrived. Like I understand, this is the bar from WW1 period (because the combinations and feldgrau colour reverse). Looks like pins are not played around, so I have a good feeling about that one. Nothing bad under the black light as well.

What is slightly weird - ribbons had been mounted wrong away around - if you attach this bar right way to the uniform, then EK2 will be the last.

Now the combination - I quess it is the Navy bar? What you guys think?

Combination:
1. Iron Cross 2nd Class (Eiserne Kreuz, II Klasse)
2. Long Service award (Dienstauszeichnung)
3. Africa campaign medal (Südwestafrika-Denkmünze)
4. Life-saving award (Rettungsmedailleband)

last ribbon is not for the life saving medal.

Ups, my bad!

Is it then Prussian General Honour Award Cross (des Allgemeinen Ehrenzeichens)?

Timo, I have a ribbon bar which is also backwards, but which I believe to be genuine.

Yes, I have seen them before as well. If my memory serves me correct RR had few examples posted up on GMIC one moment too.
