Imperial Germany - Hamburg: WW1 German Field 
Decoration of Honor, 1914 - 1918, chest star badge.
Marked "Deutsches Feld-Ehrenzeichen, Hamburg 
11" and "Ges. Gesch" 
(Protected Design), on the reverse. 
The German Field Decoration of Honor was an 
unofficial award of the respective Hamburg based 
Veteran Association for participation in the Great 
War. 
It was issued during the years 1923 - 1934 (era
of the Weimar Republic). 
Just like the majority of the awards of the Weimar 
Republic period, only the numbered diploma was 
actually issued (160.285 such certificates were 
issued in total - 120.000 of those during the years 
1933-1934).  
The badge was designed by M.Fleck & Sohn of 
Hamburg, but it was actually manufactured by 
several other medal makers as well.
The award had to be purchased by the veterans 
themselves and just like the majority of the 
Weimar Republic awards, it was banned by the 
Nazi regime in 1935.
