    Description

    The Military Merit Order (
    Militärverdienstorden)
    of the Duchy of
    Württemberg was established in 1759 and renamed the Militärverdienstorden in 1806 by King Friedrich I.
    This is the Knight's Cross (
    Ritterkreuz
    ) grade of the medal.
    It is a two-sided medal with a wreath around the medallion on the front and the monogram of King Frederick I in the medallion on the reverse.  It was awarded for bravery and meritorious acts.  The motto of the order was "fearless and loyal."
    My replica medal (two-sided) is mounted on a post-war 30 mm ribbon.
