Hi Guys!!!!!!!!!
As we are coming to the end of the year, i thought it might be fun to look back at our favorite purchases of the last twelve months!!!
I think its been a good year for 57ers here on the forum, and i know some very nice pieces have been added to your collections
So lets see your favorite additions (it can be more than one if its difficult to choose!!)

Hi Nigel,

A great idea for a thread! Unfortunately it has been very difficult for me to choose one favourite so here are a few of my 2012 pick ups that are special to me.

Best regards
Pierce

A significant grouping in my 57er collection which I got this year; the ribbons bars of Major Rudolf Zimmermann.

Hello Pierce,

a dumb question for the the professionals out there - but what is the purple ribbon with the crown and swords device?

Aah Nigel, always a difficult question ... 2012 was an absolute highlight for me in collecting 1957 awards.
But the Hell group has to be the cherry on the cake in 2012 for me ....

Hi Erich

There are no dumb questions. That ribbon represents the Bulgarian Order of St. Alexander.

Great idea for a thread, Nigel

Like ther others i have my difficulties to choose my very best buy

But i think my Deumers and my minesweeper group have been my best buys. And i have to thank a fellow collector here for offering these to me....i got the Deumers and the group from him

And here the Deumer Cab and the minesweeper group.

Minesweeper is a wartime Deumer and the EK a 57er S&L, early

Well Nigel. I'm glad you said favorite(s), as I'm so happy about a few that I got in 2012.

The first of course is the Mahlke group.
