WÜRTTEMBERG – FRACK BAR – THREE PLACE – HIGHLIGHTED BY KNIGHT’S CROSS 2nd CLASS WITH SWORDS
SKU: 02-393$850.00
This is a three-place “Frack Bar” highlighted by the Kingdom of Württemberg’s Friedrich Order Knight’s Cross 2nd Class with Swords. It is a marvelous three-place “Frack Bar.” [Two characteristics separate a Frack bar from a medal bar. The first visually different feature is that the Frack bar is set at a slight diagonal that generally skews from left-to-right. The second is that the medals are listed in importance from the right-to-left, rather than the medal bar’s more common left-to-right ranking. Also remember that medal and Frack bars typically begin with the Iron Cross 2nd Class]. Going from right-to-left, the decorations on this “Frack Bar” are listed below.
* 1914 Iron Cross 2nd Class – Prussia.
* Knight’s Cross 2nd Class with Swords – Württemberg. The decoration was awarded from 1870 through 1918. It features a white enamel center displaying Friedrich’s gilt-crowned royal cypher. A pair of crossed gilt swords is attached in two places on the medal’s top. A single jump ring is then attached to the swords’ center so that a medal/Frack bar’s ribbon can be attached as needed.
* Hindenburg Cross for Combatants with Swords. The award was authorized after Paul von HIndenburg’s 1930’s-era death. It came in three classes: combatant’s, non combatant’s, and next-of-kin.
The medals, the ribbons, and the bar itself are in excellent condition.

GERMANY – MEDAL BAR – TWO PLACE
SKU: 02-298$495.00
This is a very unusual combination for a medal bar. It has two places. From left to right we see the following:
*Red Eagle Order 4th Class. This is the final pattern of the Red Eagle, which was offered from 1879-1918. The pattern is easily identified by its pebbled arms. The 4th Class, while the same size as the 3rd Class, has silver arms. The 3rd Class Red Eagle is the first class to exhibit enameled arms. The enamel center is in excellent condition with no visible cracks. 4th Class Red Eagle’s hallmarks typically appear on the 6 o’clock arm’s edge. The example does not exhibit a manufacturer’s hallmark. The cross is clearly made of silver.
*War Service Cross.
The 4th Class Red Eagle was very often awarded to civilians from the middle or upper classes. This is a fine medal bar.
