German Awards - Badge of Honor for Workers and Servants (Royce Junior Line)

This badge of honor was established on April 11, 1896 by Prince Henry XIV. Persons of the principalities who served as workers and employees for at least 30 years in the same official relations were awarded. The time was counted from the moment of reaching 25 years. During this period, people had to serve without censure and be loyal. The badge of honor was not subject to return. Stamps for the medal were carved by Hermann Weckvert, a coin engraver from Berlin. Production took place in Dresden at the court jeweler Scharffenberg. Source: J. Nimmergut, Deutsche Orden und Ehrenzeichen bis 1945, vol. II, 1997.
