German Awards - 1909 Silver Wedding Commemorative Badge for Princely Guests

The commemorative sign was presented on 11 November 1909 by Crown Prince Henry XXVII for his silver wedding to Elise, Princess of Hohenlohe-Langenburg. This badge was received by everyone who officially took part in the celebrations. A commemorative badge with a lapel pin was issued for princely guests. (The image of the remains of the brochure is recognizable, converted into a women's brooch.) Other guests received a badge with an ear and a ring of ribbon, and the ladies received a badge with a red enameled crown. On the cork sign for the princely ladies, the crown was not enameled. But it was also allowed to wear an enameled version in the form of a brooch. Source: J. Nimmergut, Deutsche Orden und Ehrenzeichen bis 1945, vol. II , 1997.
