WW1 ek2 medal bar original?

[brock]

This was in a grouping I acquired. It looks good to me, EK is three piece magnetic core. Thanks for any help. What is the middle medal?

Middle cross-wurtenberg Fridrih-Au
gust cross 2-nd class.

The 2d medal is from Oldenburg, not Wuertenburg.

Thanks but is it real?

Hi Brock,

Yes, it is a real. It's an original "not messed with" medal bar, made sometime after the Honour Cross came out in July of 1934.

The ribbons are nice and tightly wrapped around the bar, equally spaced and laid out, all good signs of the way we like to see an original period medal bar.

What was the other stuff that came with it, 3rd Reich items?

Best Regards,

Alan

The Ek looks like a 1930's manufactured piece, but it also reminds me a little of 57'er types. It's an interesting bar and one I would like to see in my hand.
