	Nicholas I, 50th anniversary medal. Bronze gilt. Exactly as the one below (see #Mon-5). The only difference is the condition, which is still quite good but not as clean as the one above. Little more wear, but still reasonable with good lick of patina. Item # Mon-6 Sold	Sold
	Order of Danilo, 1861- 1893 type. Knight class. Thin planchet indicating French manufacture. Wonderful, original ribbon showing age and typical pulls. No chipping to enamels. Missing center disk on reverse. Perfect for display or uniform mount. 37mm wide. Item # Mon-8 SOLD	SOLD
	Order of Danilo I, Knight class of the Order. Rare flat design, believed to be of French manufacture (possibly by Kretly). 1861- 1893 type (exactly like one pictured in V. Mericka's book, figure 4/c, page 114). Proper replacement ribbon. Shows light wear, typical marks on thin silver arms but no damage. Enamels intact. Really nice example and, very hard to find in thin form (considerably thinner then Austrian-made crosses). 48mm x 38mm. Original suspension ring. Item # Mon-4 SOLD	SOLD
	Nicholas I, 50th anniversary medal. Bronze gilt. All are hard to find, especially in silver as very few were made. Condition is very good, old ribbon. Designer's name in relief to bottom of obverse (St. Schwartz). King's head with inscription (to commemorate 50 years of reign 1910). Cross of the Order of Danilo I with dates 1860 - 1910 to reverse. Also in clear relief is a name/mark 'PRINZ' to bottom left of reverse. This could be the jeweller who was hired to manufacture the medals. Although not much is known about him, I have seen this name on another Montenegrian bravery medal. Rare find and a must for a Montenegrian collection. 33mm in diameter. Item # Mon-5. SOLD	SOLD
	Order of Danilo I (also known as Montenegrian Independence Order). This spectacular decoration was founded in 1861 and statutes had been revised number of times. Neck badge of the 2nd or 3rd class (the same). Appears to be roughly around 1870's vintage with crowned Royal cypher. Silver badge (gilt crown and centers). Interesting example with 2 different centers: obverse appears to be Austrian or German made with rare flat lettering, reverse has beautifully raised inscriptions/dates - possibly in gold (may be also Austrian- or French-made). Unmarked but original. Multi-part construction, some minor enamel cracking (mostly the white outer bands). Contact marks to metal - inner center band (not detractive). Ribbon appears to be original (51mm) or old replacement (watermarked silk!). Complete with neck ties. Cross spans 50mm. Great details to crown and pendilia. Very interesting type of this handsome Order. Item # Mon-1. SOLD	SOLD
	Medal for 1875-1878 Independance Wars. Bronze gilt of finest quality. Great details to this 3.2mm thick medal. Older replacement ribbon (correct colours). Shows age, no damage. 36.1mm in diameter. Very hard to find Montenegrian medal. Item # Mon-2. SOLD	SOLD
	Kingdom era, war bravery medal. Issued during King Nikola I Petrovic reign (1860-1918). The small country of Montenegro was annexed by Serbia in 1918. An uprising to restore the country's independence in 1919 did not succeed. The King was forced to exile and died few years later. Medal in silver, depicting National eagle, King's crown atop. Reverse inscribed: for freedom for bravery, crossed swords below with foliage beneath. Original tri-fold ribbon in traditional white and red colors. Medal is quite rare due to miniscule numbers issued. Remarkable condition with just a single, small edge ding and light scratches. Nicely toned with age. Very few contact marks. Ribbon is clean. Beautiful detail. Truly a hard find. Guaranteed original. 36.2mm in diameter. Clear hallmarks for 'Vinc Mayer's Söhne, Vienna (VM) and Austrian silver control mark of 'horned head' A 3 (Vienna 900/800 silver mark). Also the type is the less common cylindrical suspension one. Hard to find piece and well hallmarked. Great addition to your Montenegrin or Balkan collection. Item # Mon-3. SOLD	SOLD
	Medal for Heroism 1862. Awarded for exceptional bravery. Silver. Type with fancy suspension. There was another type with ball suspender. Replacement ribbon. Shows typical wear marks. These medals were often worn 'to the ground' and few details were visible. All details are clear on the medal offered here. 31mm diameter. Designer's name in relief ("S" for Seiden). Rarely offered for sale. Item # Mon-7. SOLD	SOLD
