Gentlemen, just obtained these two medals for my Imperial/Weimar post war replacement collection of awards/medals........A Silesian Eagle medal second class (Schleiser Adler 2. Klasse) and an Imperial Baden Medal of Merit, both I believe to be of St u L manufacture, some time in the 1960's/70's...........Note the suspension ring on the Baden medal now has a jump ring with a ribbon suspension ring, the original design 1907-18 and inter war replacements had a single wire style bridge for the ribbon, this was probably done as a money saving exercise, as existing hardware as seen on all other St u L medals of the 57er period could be used.......
Prost ! Steve.
