Ribbonbars with medal miniatures on them

[germanmedals]

I came across a collection with this ribbonbars with miniatures. I have never seen such asembly and based on the look i'd say a combo of repros and few possible originals. What's your thought?

I do like this police bar, though. Can we see the back of this beauty?

Thank you & best regards,
Tom

I'll ask. yes the medalbars are OK IMO

[Scott C.]

Other than the full size police bar, I think there is a whole lot of fake in those rikers.

[Brian R]

The ribbon bars with minis are definite fakes.

Like others have said TR miniature-bars is these configuration style are all-ways put-togethers (or fakes if you want).

This is a more a commonwealth mess-dress style the German style was the frock bar with full medals or chain/button-hole.

By the way only the navy had official 'Mess Dress' before and during the war. Opps also the Allgemeine SS had a mess-dress .

I concur as well. The enclosed image illustrates a correct mini medal bar and a pin version. The other two are not "textbook", but as they are fairly early, IMO I don't think they should be dismissed as fakes.

cheers

All of the SS ribbon bar devices are crude fakes.
There seems to be four different SS 8 year minis and it may just be the lighting, but they all appear to have different finishes...close-ups would help for authentication.
