This is an interesting, unusual photo pendant of Kaiser Friedrich III. In Germany, Friedrich III is referred to as the “ninety-nine day Kaiser,” as he survived his father and reigned for less than three months. [The result was that within the span of ninety-nine days, Germany had three different kaisers]. The petite, silver-toned pendant has a semiprecious red jasper stone affixed to its reverse. An eagle perches atop the pendant. It is an appealing piece that would be great for an avid collector of Kaiser Friedrich III memorabilia, or as a new collector’s first piece.

TURKEY – PATRIOTIC PIN – GALLIPOLI STAR – MINIATURE
During WW I, the Central Powers lined up against the Allies consisted of Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, and Bulgaria. The early through mid-war years revealed numerous signs of this cooperation. Patriotic jewelry was certainly one means of expressing the cooperation, particularly in the German and Austro-Hungarian Empires (perhaps due to the Teutonic ties between them). Turkey and Bulgaria also produced such artifacts, if on a less-plentiful scale. Our offering today reflects the Turkish involvement with a silver-toned badge that features an Iron Cross as its central theme. The cross’s center displays the word “Deutschland,” with the date, “1916,” below it. The cross is topped by a crown. A pair of crossed swords extends through the cross’s center. A crescent-shaped banner, with a star (which may represent a mini-Gallipoli Star) sitting atop its middle, is attached to the cross just above the two swords’ tips. The crescent bears the legend “Kriegs Andenken” (War Souvenirs). A miniature Gallipoli Star dangles from a jump ring attached to the middle-bottom of the crescent. The Star is in very fine condition, and even has enameled arms like its full-sized counterparts. While the decoration’s metal is silver-toned, no silver content hallmarks are visible on it.
This exceptional piece of patriotic jewelry is in wonderful condition. It would make a captivating addition to any collection.
