    Mecklenburg Strelitz 1st and 2nd class

    Hi

    these 2 uncommon pieces also came to me.
    IMO both in silvered bronce. I hope everything
    is ok with these nice crosses.
    The first class is for me a little highlight.
    Thanks for comments and opinions.

    regards kai

            Nice. I have a 2nd class but wasn't aware of a first class pinback. Would love to add one to my collection.

                Hi

                these both are imo not made by godet.
                A collector who knows good the Mecklenburg awards
                told me the 1st cl. could be made by meybauer.
                Godet is higher quality. But I'm happy about
                my catch.

                regards kai

                  Vary nice crosses, especially the first class. Why Meybauer?
                  I thought this are Zimmermann piece like the Schweriner crosses.

                    Yes I thought aswell, but I were showing it to
                    Jörg Kalies in Hamburg and he believes the backside
                    pin could be a Meybauer. He actualy don't agreed
                    to Zimmerman when I asked for this maker.
                    I think he knows better

                        The top of the pin seems too narrow, and its overall shape doesn't reflect a typical Meybauer pin. Also, the 'V' notch at the top is a trademark design of Zimmermann. So, I would tend to agree with others that it's a Zimmermann.

                        Either way, it's a nice and fairly scarce piece.

                          Aboslutely, definitely, 1000% NOT Meybauer. The pin is totally incorrect - Meybauer never used a notched pin from what I've seen - and the obverse details are incorrect for Meybauer. See my Meybauer marked example.

                          I like the example posted, probably a wartime example imo. I aso agree that it is likely by the same maker as some of the Meck-Schwerin wartime 1st Class examples.

                            Hi Gents,

                            what a very nice duscussion . I now know that
                            you are right. This type belongs to the zimmermann
                            crosses.

                            Schwerin 1 class, 100% classic zimmermann (has been mine until last month)
