The BO looks original but the box and ribbon maybe reproductions.

[Erich B.]

I agree with ErichS; good Blood Order but fake box and ribbon.

I know I saw this medal some where. This one's on Lakeside Traders Site and he states the box and ribbon are fakes but the medal it self looks good.

Being a second pattern Blutorden, even if the case were original, it would not be the correct case for 'this' order.

From these pics the ribbon and case sure do look like reproductions. The order itself looks to be in remarkable condition...

What's the asking price?

EDIT: I just found the BO on Paul's site, and the case and ribbon are definitely reproductions, just as stated in the listing. He did quite well on this one. $5K for a ribbon-less 2nd pattern. Not bad, Paul!

Congratulations! Not many collectors own an original type 1 or 2 Blood Order. That's a beauty--I might have owned that one in the past--I'll have to check my files.

that would be great Erich

Congrats on your purchase Terry and I agree that not many have a BO of either type in their collections.

Terry congratulations that's an absolute pristine looking example of these type of medals, any details on the original owner ?

On the research side of these medals are they hard to research the original recipients ?
