- EK II 1914
- BAVARIAN ODER OF MIL.. MERIT 4TH KL.
- WURTT. FRIEDRICH ORDER
- HONOR CROSS 1914-1918
- THIRD REICH 25 YEAR SERVICE CROSS
- THIRD REUCH 12 YEAR SVC. MEDAL
- AUSTRIAN MILITARY MERIT CROSS 3RD KL.
- AUSTRIAN WW1 COMMEMORATIVE MEDAL
- HUNGARIAN WW1 COMM. MEDAL

I have to see a picture of the front and back before I can try and make an ID.

I like the bars.

The FO 1.class is a late piece made of the Stuttgart mint. Its no piece made of real gold.

The MVO looks silver gilded. i cannot see the backside crossarms.

Its definitely no early piece.

are the long service medals magnetic iron?

romischIX,
the lower arms of the BAVARIAN MVO and WURTT. FRIEDRICH ORDER are sewn down and i am unable to see/photo the reverse of those awards.

the TR long svc. medals are magnetic.

I checked for an ID on the 8 place bar and no luck.

If the price is good take it.

i think the owner held the rank of an lieutenant-colonel or colonel.
or a generals rank could be possible.

i think he left ww1 as an capitan.
