    Default Question on Baden Kriegsverdienstkreuz ribbon on medal bar

    I have this medal bar with a Baden Kriegsverdienstkreuz, but I'm wondering what the ribbon is? It's red with a yellow and black side, which isn't the correct one (?) for the Baden KVK. Is this ribbon for a different medal or is it just because the bar is cheaply tailored? Thanks!

    Often, tailors would use ribbon that was 'close enough' if they didn't have the correct one. For the Baden KVK the yellow stripes should be more towards the centre of the ribbon. Yours looks more like a long service award ribbon. Are my eyes deceiving me, or is that black edging on the ribbon of the Centenary Medal?

    The black edge is on the "KVK" ribbon. The ribbon of the Centernary medal is all yellow.

    OK, that makes that ribbon even weirder. Definitely not a Baden ribbon I'm familiar with.
