    I bought this Prussian Long Service Medal a few months ago but forgot about it until recently. I tried doing some research into it, but most websites I found covered the Nazi incarnation of the long service award. Does anyone know anything about this medal, and what are y'alls opinions on if it's original?

    Awesome! Is there a way to tell what time period it's from, as I believe the medal was around from 1849-1920ish? Thanks!

    Aside from the extremely worn ribbon, it's a very nice medal.
    Great catch.........!

    That's a good looking long service cross
    Being that it's a lone medal, there is nothing as far as clues to tell
    when it might have been awarded.

    I have a button hole grouping that has a 25 year medal along with
    a 1871 war services medal and centenary medal which would date it
    at around 1895 but not as late as ww1.

    This is the 4th type (with grained arms), awarded since 1895.
