    Description

    German
    Order of the Black Eagle
    made of solid silver, marked with '900' on the crossarm.
    The
    Order of the Black Eagle
    (German:
    Hoher Orden vom Schwarzen Adler
    )
    was the highest order of chivalryin the Kingdom of Prussia.
    The order was founded on 17 January 1701 by ElectorRriedrich III of Brandenburg,
    who became Friedrich I, King in Prussia, the following day.
    It was worn on a yellow-orange sash.
    The medal is made of
    solid silver
    and is
    real gilded
    .
    It has slight signs of use, but it is in a very good condition!
    The Maltese cross is enamelled on both sides.
    Real Glass enamel - bulbous form.
    Gold-crowned black eagles between the arms of the cross.
    The gold center medallion bore the royal monogram of Friedrich I
    ("FR", for
    Fredericus Rex
    ).
    Surely the medal is not an awarded piece, rather a so-called second piece
    or an old jewelers production for survivors.
