Re: Need Opinion/Advice on Medal Group
correction: i think the tag on the back is a the maker, not sure though, weird that the eagle on the second medal looks tilted

Re: Need Opinion/Advice on Medal Group
Yea I noticed too that the center piece was crooked. Maybe that part got knocked off and got put back on wrong.

Re: Need Opinion/Advice on Medal Group
The tag is indeed the maker and his address, and this bar could be worth between $500 and $1000.
Strange that the lozenge is skewed and possibly put back in place incorrectly, as Josey mentioned.
This will have an impact on the value.
There could be a maker mark somewhere on the rim of the Hohenzollern medal, or on one of the
swords, or even on it's ring, and/or a silver content mark.
$200 really was a steal...............!

On the bottom arm along the bottom edge it looks like 388 W is stamped there.
Thanks for all the input on this group.

Hi Josey, and welcome to the forum!
Just to clarify: the tag on the back of the medal bar was not strictly speaking the maker, but was the retailer of the bar. This would most likely be a military tailors/outfitters. You would take your awards there and have them mounted onto the medal bar.
Cheers, Ade.
