wanted to show this outstanding medal bar that I believe is Prussia!

Has non-combanant Iron Cross!

Colonial Africa

non-combanant Boxer Rebellion

1888 in silver gold plated Kasier!

Just a outstanding rare medal bar!

This will be going up for sale!

But wanted to share pics!

It really looks so much nicer in hand!

Certainly these are Prussian awards. They were awarded to all persons from any of the German kingdoms, duchies etc. As the colonial service was administered by the central government of the Second Reich of which Prussia was the seat, these applied to all. Really a great example. Let me know when you decide to sell. I would love to add it to my collection.

Best...Rick
