Bill,
Looks like a twenty-five year service medal for a Bonn veteran's club for Ulans, or Lancers.
Are there any initials or abbreviations on the horseshoe?
Neat!
Bill

Hi Bill, Nassau was a State that was around for about 60Years from 1806 to 1866 and was made up by part of the States Rheinland-Pfalz and Hessen. The badge you have has the Lion symbol for the State Flag of Nassau and the Helmet with the 2 Axes, which are the symbols for a Fire Department. This badge is for the Nassauer Fire Association (made up by several Fire Departments) that was founded in 1872. �Gott zur Ehr dem Naechsten zur Wehr�, In Gods Honor protect your next Mankind! Something like that. JME
