Originally instituted by King Wilhelm I, this particular military variant featuring the crossed swords was formally introduced on January 18, 1865, to honor exceptional military distinction and merit outside of direct wartime engagement. The piece features a striking white Maltese cross design with a central gold-toned Prussian crown, set against a rich blue enamel-style background. This specific reproduction highlights the peacetime military version of the award, correctly paired with its authentic solid blue ribbon. In Prussian heraldry, the vibrant blue ribbon signifies an award granted for outstanding military achievement or command during periods of peace. The reverse side meticulously captures the founding date of the order, October 18, 1861, honoring the coronation of the King. This piece is a historically faithful addition for any serious historical collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 5060572073593\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.2 x 2.2 x 0.1 inches\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FREECROWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58481083810173,"sku":"B0H2YQPWT6","price":19.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0057\/4885\/0734\/files\/71e58Qlop1L.jpg?v=1785754835","url":"https:\/\/www.militariareplicas.com\/products\/prussian-royal-order-of-the-crown-2nd-class-blue-ribbon-military-replica","provider":"Militaria Replicas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
