Very nice ! A form of these were carried by the regiment flags along with their Parade Banners ,I just bought this one. I already have the Hanseatenkreuz collection, all 3 of them, but this one showed up for sale at a very low price.

No emaille damage, a nice ribbon on it, and so I could not resist it.
If I decide to let it go, I'll send you a message here Steve! This is in fact my second war time issued Lübeck hanseaten kreuz.Very nice. I have the post war issue. This one is the war time issue as shown by the red claws.
If you are interested in selling it I'd be a buyer.
SteveAmazing Steve. Hamburg and Lubeck! It would have been quite a score if Bremen had been on offer.
Training my cats will never work. These guy's just go their own way. No problem for me though, I just love cats, and they know it, the buggers..You need to train your cats to dust your case with their paws. Make it a game! Oh wait, no, then they they would take all the medals out and scatter them around the house.
Nice collection!
The Lübeck hanseaten kreuz with the long ribbon is my latest addition by the way, the other Lübeck has been in my collection for a very long time.
When I saw my latest addition for sale here in the Netherlands, I just couldn't resist it. I know these are the rarer ones, and the price was very right. In fact, it was a bargain. All original, no enamel damage, a long original ribbon, for only 90€ it came my way. A bargain!
The guy selling it had more Hanseatenkreuzes for sale, Hamburg and Bremen, but all had enamel damage, so I passed on those.
Regards, Coert.
Going strong, Coert !View attachment 66412

An overview of my single medals collection so far. Don't look at the dust, its only on the outside of the case. I have 4 cats roaming around here, so the dust, and my laziness is the case here.
Best regards, Coert.
Thanks! Well, if you find a Saxon M95 helmet you want to sell, drop me a line will you?Going strong, Coert !
I like them a lot...
I know, I have 3 of those cases, but all are full. One with all my spangen, the other with all the singels, and another one filled with British, Belgium and French medals. Just as I like my hauben, I also like to collect medals, it is getting out of hand now.I think it's time for another case my friend, that's a lot of goodness packed in there.![]()
That Württemberg M95 is also a helmet I'm looking for. As you know, I had one before, but had to sell it.I only got a prussian, Baden and Württemberg m95 in store ( not on the website yet)
Well John, yesterday 2 more showcases came in here, today I reorganised my medal collection. So I went from 2, to 4 showcases now.I think it's time for another case my friend, that's a lot of goodness packed in there.![]()
