    Study of TWMs - *

    The second in the series of TWM study threads, this time * (asterix) marked TWMs. Demir Erman identifies these medals as Austrian made. * means the medal does not contain any valuable metal (such as silver).

    I have only two * marked TWMs, please feel free to contribute if you have one as well. I tried to compare the front pieces (tugra, date and the gazi plates) and on the reverse the catch and pin mechanism and the position of the little rivets that hold the front elements (two rivets for each plate)


    This thread contains only the basic information on this particular maker, hopefully we can discover new pieces, information and new evidence about this maker and develop this thread.

    Please feel free to add your Turkish War Medals from this maker here and share your opinions and knowledge for the newcomers.

    Thank you for your interest and participation.

    Comparison of the texture on the arms. Notice the left one lacks the outer lining so the red enamel surface is bigger on the arm but the texture remains the same.

      Positions of the little rivets on the back. The gazi plate has rivets much closer to each other on the left one but other than that they look the same.

                      This is a small section on the * marked TWMs in the May/June 2014 edition of the Internationales Mlitaria-Magazin.

                        My one is shown in this thread. It came in its original fitted case with maker name and was made in Gera, Germany

                            Isn't this asterisk mark the same to be found on C. F. Zimmermann made Iron Crosses?

                            I tend to think this is not an Austrian mark here!

                              Hello Sascha, I hope you are right and we can finally put a name behind this maker. Please do elaborate with * marked EK's.
