Set of 2 WW1 medals mounted on large bar.

the maker's mark is not visible, this is a typical 
example of maker "KO" (Imperial Mint).

with 4 clasps  (YSER, YPRES, SOMME, 
DURCHBRUCHSSCHLACT ("Breakthrough" 
clasp, for the Eastern Front Gorlice-Tarnow 
offensive in 1915) for participation in the 
respective battles. 
The Flanders Cross was instituted in 1921 as 
an unofficial veterans award. 
Just like the majority of the Veteran awards of 
the Weimar Republic, only the diploma was 
actually issued.
The Cross and the respective clasps had to 
be purchased privately by the recipients. 
Only roughly 30.000 Crosses were authorized.
