Description
Imperial German 8-medal bar with matching miniature chain in a period time case. Scarce medal bar since this German soldier was awarded the Swedish Order of Vasa! Next to it is the Prussian 20 years Service Medal, the Prussian Eagle Order 4th Class (W marked = Wagner), the Hindenburg Cross, the Hanseatic Cross, the Anhalt Friedrich Cross for war merits, the Brunswick War Merit Cross 2nd Class as well as the 1914 Iron Cross 2nd Class. 
 
The Swedish Order of Vasa is slightly chipped to both sides. There is no enamel damage to any other medal. The miniature chain is absolutely fine and from very high quality.
 
A scarce set! Extremely rare bar. Not many Germans must have been awarded with the Order of Vasa.
 
Length of the medal bar: 22cm!
