Cheers Steve. regards MR
Right; I'll fill in the blanks again:
- Group 1 (sixth medal on the bar): Медаль за участие в Европейской войне [War Commemorative Medal]; i.e. the Bulgarian commemorative medal for WWI. This one is on the ribbon for combatants. (The ribbon has faded badly; compare to the example in group # 2.)
- Group 2 (fifth medal on the bar): Медаль за участие в Европейской войне [War Commemorative Medal]; i.e. the Bulgarian commemorative medal for WWI; it's on the ribbon for combatants.
- Group 2 (sixth medal on the bar): Kriegserinnerungszeichen des Bayerischen Landesvereins vom Roten Kreuz [War Commemorative Badge of the Bavarian State Association of the Red Cross]. This one has the ribbon for Heimatverdienst [meritorious service in the homeland] as identified by the silver stripes, whereas the ribbon for Kriegsverdienst [meritorious service in the field and rear areas] had additional black stripes.
- Group 3 (first medal on the bar): Silberne Militärverdienstmedaille [Silber Medal of Military Merit], aka Silberne Württembergische Tapferkeitsmedaille [Silver Wurttembergian Bravery Medal].
- Group 4 (fourth medal on the bar): Jubiläumsmedaille für die Armee [Jubilee Medal for the Army]; a Bavarian decoration
- Group 4 (fifth medal on the bar): Dienstauszeichnung 1. Klasse für 15 Jahre [Service Award for 15 years]; again, Bavarian.
- Group 6 (fourth medal on the bar): An unofficial award; the commemorative medal for the 100th anniversary of the 14. Bayerisches Infanterie-Regiment "Hartmann" [14th Bavarian Infantry Regiment "Hartmann"] in 1914.
- Group 7 (fourth medal on the bar): Verwundetenmedaille [Medal for the Wounded]; an Austro-Hungarian decoration. This one is for a soldier who was wounded once (as identified by the single red center stripe of the ribbon).
- Group 7 (sixth medal on the bar): Allgemeines Kärntner Kreuz für Tapferkeit 2. Klasse [General Carinthian Cross for Bravery, 2nd Class].
Here's a set that is currently for sale:
EK2 Imperial
- KVK with swords
- Hamburg Hanseatic cross The Hanseatic cross was awarded for merit in war, and issued in the city of Hamburg
- 1914 Friedrich August Cross from the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg. This is the Oldenburg equivalent of the 1914 Iron Cross 2nd Class. It is for combatants.
- WW1 Honour Cross,
- 25 year civil medal.
- Imperial German Prussia landwehr army long service medal
- Prussian 1897 Kaiser Wilhelm Centennial Medal.(Zentenarmedaille). This medal was created in 1897 by Kaiser Wilhelm II to honour his grandfather’s (Kaiser Wilhelm I) 100th anniversary of his birth (1797-1897). Germany’s first Kaiser lived from 1797 until 1888.
I think these medal bars do look impressive
Hi Andreas and Guten Abend. Once again, thank you very very much for taking the time to identify the Imperial German and European medals that I have placed on view.

The fourth medal in Group 1 is the Medalla de la Campaña Española 1936-1939 [Medal for the Campaign of 1936−1939], i.e. the Spanish medal for the Falangist Forces in the Spanish Civil war; also awarded to personnel of the German Legion Condor and the Italian Corpo Truppe Volontarie.
Although it depicts the famous Kyffhäuser memorial, the single medal of Group 7 is not from the Kyffhäuserbund, but from the Preußischer Landeskriegerverband [Prussian State Veterans' Association]: It is the Kriegervereins-Ehrenkreuz II. Klasse [Veterans Associations' Cross of Honor 2nd Class].
