Awards of Germany - Commemorative coin "Kyffhauser" for 1914/18

A commemorative Kuffhauser Union coin for participants in the First World War was donated on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the opening of the Kuffhauser monument. In 1922, the insignia of the front-line soldiers was established - 2 crossed swords. Later, miniatures for a chain of tailcoats were also minted. They have 2 text options on the back. In addition, battle braces were assigned to identify relevant front-line operations. However, carriers could attach a maximum of 5 such clips. The difference between braces and braces of 1870/71 is mainly in deep embossing in black.
The following braces are known: AISNE-CHAMPAGNE/AVCRE/ANTWERPEN-OSTENDE/ARGONNEN/ARMENTIERES/ARRAS-ALBERT AVRE/CHAMBRAI/CAMPAGAGNE/DINANT/FERE-CHAMPENOISE/FLANDERS AND ARTOIS/JUVINECOURT KEMMELBERG/LA BASSOE-ARRAS/LILLE/LORETTO-HØE/LORRAINE/MAAS-ENA/MARNE AND BEZLE/BATTLE OF THE MARNE/MONTDIDIER DDIER-NOYON/MÜHLHAUSEN/NANCY-EPINAL/OISE PERTHES/REIMS/SCARPE/SOISSONS-REIMS/SOLDAU-NEIDENBERG/SOMME-BATTLE/ST.QUENTIN/VERDUN/VOGESEN/PROMOTION 1914/WYCHAETE/YPERN/YSER/
