my opinion the u in Mürwik should have an umlaut and without the accompanying e following.

E ~

Nice original Tally, don't worry about the missing umlaut. Often done to add the e.

Thanks for your help guys

While this is from WW1, here is a cap tally from the light cruiser SMS Coeln with a charcoal drawing of a sailor wearing the exact same spelling. However his dog tag has Coln with the umlauts over the o. For the Kriegsmarine, they will go with the Kreuzer Koln, umlauts over the o.

Wow, a nice collection of Tallys

I hope to increase my collection from just two

Thanks for the info on the umlaut

The tally at the top is original.

Hello Nick,
I think you have a good tally.
The spelling Meurwik was in use during the interwar years.
More than likely changed when taken over by the BundesMarine
Under is a picture from Helmut Weitze's site showing a tally from the Reichsmarine priced at 25 euros
All the best

Thanks for that Doug

again my reason inter-war years that the Schule during the war yeasrs had the talleyband with the umlauts, wonder if we can find the talley photographically during just pre- or war time era without the umlauts pictured in the old schrift ? As I do have a talley of the Schule in my collection and hae seen only examples of Mürwik as presented without displayed as ue.

make sense hopefully ?
