Weimar Medaille der König-Karl-Jubiläumsstiftung Freistaat Württemberg

In a very good condition a Wurttemberg King Karl Jubilee Foundation Free State of Württemberg in box

This medal was donated on November 2, 1920 by the State Ministry of the Free State of Württemberg. After the First World War and the formation of the Free State, the foundation's constitution was changed. The purpose of the foundation remained basically the same. In addition to supporting and promoting agriculture, domestic industry and small businesses, a medal should continue to be awarded in a modified form. Workers and employees should be honored after many years of loyal service in the same company. Industrial workers could be honored after 35 years of service and agricultural workers after 25 years of service. Civil servants and employees and service personnel in private companies were excluded. Foreigners could also be awarded. The planned maximum award of 6 medals per year was obviously not adhered to. The medals were made of silver or silver-plated white metal. The size of the clasp also varies a bit.

Round silver medal with raised rim. Above a soldered, ordinary eyelet with a ribbon ring. On the ribbon a rectangular, hollow, embossed bronze clasp. At the back a wide soldered metal strip to pull the tape through. A horizontal pin on the metal strip.
