These are some of my favorite awards.

These are beautiful crosses R.R.

It is great to see these together and all in such good condition with no enamel loss.

Kind regards

Beautiful trio, it must have taken some time and effort to find all 3 is such good condition.

But you forgot the grand finale, the groupshot

But you forgot the grand finale, the groupshot

You're reason Peter, I forget it, but no needed to be disapointed, two groupshots for you.

Person told me Richtofen has received the trio, is it correct?

Lovely groupshots, those pics are wallpapper material.

Yes, it seems that Richtofen got all 3 but i cant find the date for the Hamburg Cross. The Lübeck Cross was awarded 22 September 1917 and the Bremen Cross the 25 September 1917.

hi R.R.

nice to see these ones

In my opinion the backside of the bremen
cross looks not so good for me (please
compare the backside of the other crosses)
I hope I were allowed to copy your foto.
I marked the positions I disagree.
I sometimes see this making on modern
fakes offered by ebay.

I would like to hear some other opinions
and hope that I fail

Thanks Gen,

I'd like to have more opinions about it too.

For comparison:
The red color seems to be more even around the edges on the cross from Weitze.

Hi Peter,

Thank you very much for the Weitze medal pictures, but I really don't see great diferences between mine and Weitze crosses. I live at a very humid country and I need to protect my medals with a Renwax coat, may be it caused some light effects at my pictures.

If someone has pictures from the modern copies, please I'll be glad to see it for comparations with mine.

Regards,

Ricardo
