The Red Ribbon vs The Orange Ribbon on EK2s

[old siagon]

Hello,

I recently was gifted an Orange ribbon for my EK2 from a kind association member after a large EK2 purchase.

From time to time I heard about the "orange" ribbon and have a couple questions.

1. Was the Orange ribbon particular to any specific maker?

2. Is the Orange ribbon considered OK to the collecting community?

Thank you for your assistance,
Vince

Hello Vince,
I don't believe the orange ribbon was specific to a particular maker, more likely to be an earlier type from what I've read here and it is perfectly acceptable as an original type of ribbon.

Thank you Adrian! By chance have you looked at my thread about the Spanish made EK2. I would value your opinion.
My best,

Hey Vince,

I did a poll some time back on this subject http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=199558

Seems they are quite common, and perfectly acceptable.
