WWI Finnish Silver Medal of Liberty 1st Class 1918 w/ Imperial German Ribbon
Circular silver medal with eyelet and original ring for ribbon suspension; the face with the crowned lion of Finland holding a sword, with two white roses of Finland and inscribed ‘URHEUDESTA FÖR TAPPERHET’ (\'For bravery\' in Finnish and in Swedish); the reverse inscribed ‘SUOMEN KANSALTA’ (From the Finnish People) and dated ‘1918’ within a circular laurel wreath.Maker\'s mark \'S&Co\' for Sporrong & Co, City of Stockholm assay mark, ‘Q7’ (1918) date stamp and ‘\'S’ silver control stamp at the base; on original. The Cross of Liberty was established on 4 March 1918 and was made by Sporrong & Co, founded in Sweden in 1666, and a foremost maker of orders and medals, not least for Finland. This example would have been awarded for an act of military bravery during the Liberation War.This medal was issued during the same year as the war, 1918. Only 5,237 of these were issued.From what I can find, the German 27th Jaeger Batalion was formed from Finnish jaeger volunteers and fought from 1915-1918. Finland was during this time a Grand Duchy of Russia. The battalion took part in the Finnish Civil War in the winter and spring of 1918. I believe this is a medal issued to a member of the German Battalion.See my other sales with military and other items!Please feel free to ask any questions.
