    Crown Order

    I have Neal O'Connor's book, Aviation Awards and the Men Who Earned Them, Volume II - Prussia, but the article on the Prussian Crown Order is very brief. And there are only a couple of black and white photos.

    Does anyone have any pictures of this award, in its various classes, mit schwertern, that they would be willing to share? I have good pics of the Red Eagle Order and the Cross of the Order of the House of Hohenzollern, Knight but not the Crown Order - specifically the 3rd and 4th Classes.

    Thank you for any assistance.

    You only want scans WITH SWORDS, right? I don't have any...

                        And don't forget!

                        Medal to The Prussian Order of The Crown! The medal is hard to find, impossible cased. Note the tiny blue case, as opposed to a monogrammed black one! Only one I ever found, now in a Private California Collection.

                              WOW!

                              Thank you, Rick. Those are absolutely beautiful! I didn't expect the cases, thanks. Do you mind if I download them for personal use?

                              The small crown was used until 1864, correct?

                              Is there a particular reason that one is silver?

                              Who made these, Godet and Wagner?
