PRUSSIA – MINIATURE – KAISER WILHELM II’S ANNUAL INFANTRY REGIMENT SHOOTING PRIZE – 1905
SKU: 29-68$95.00

Length: inThis is a miniature which was worn on a soldier’s tie chain. The miniature is for the infantry’s annual regimental shooting competition.
Each year a shooting competition for infantry/cavalry and artillery regiments was held within the German Army. The regiments that compiled the best records received a special prize from the Kaiser. The prize was in the form of a sleeve badge, which was proudly worn by the regiment’s members (enlisted and NCO). The miniature replicates the 1905 badge. It appears at one time the crown may have snapped off, then was re-soldered back into place. I have NEVER seen such an example before.

This is a miniature of the Combatants Medal for Service in the 1870-1871 Franco-Prussian War. The decoration was awarded to all German troops who acted as a combatant in that war. The obverse has a cross with the war’s dates. The reverse features Kaiser Wilhelm I’s crowned cypher.
This decoration follows the same format as was used in the 1813-1815 Napoleonic Wars. The edges of the full-sized medals featured information that the bronze medal had been produced from melted-down, captured French cannons.
The miniature measures 3/4″ in diameter.
It has a small attachment at the top. It could have been worn on a tie bar where a veteran would display all of his decorations.
