Gildwiller1918 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I would recommend you look through the posts Fritz made on the various German states. I do believe you will find the information you seek there. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fritz Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Prussia, Militär Ehrenzeichen 2. Klasse, instituted 1864, third highest military award for other ranks and NCOs. Awarded in the wars of 1864 and 1866 and in the colonies. May also have been awarded in the war of 1870/71. Awarded also 1914 - ca. 1917. Prussia, Allgemeines Ehrenzeichen (Silver), orginally created in one class in 1810. This later became the 2nd class. A 3rd class (bronze) medal was created in 1912. The 1st class, a silver cross with gold centre medallions, was created in 1900, had a slightly different ribbon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
