Title Bavarian Ludwigs Kreuz, bronze
Nationality German
Period 1916
Price £45.00

Like its Prussian counterpart, this was awarded in WW1 for welfare and hospital work to civilians. However, this example appears to be made of bronze with all its original patina. The ribbon should have blue horizontal stripes in the centre white field, so this is close but not quite correct. Otherwise, the cross is in good condition.

Chris, the PAB has arrived, a totally genuine wartime piece and I'm very pleased...

Excellent information, Chris, you've been making a big effort! I will spell it out more closely (I'm a historian!) and don't think Bezdek can add much more.
