Mannock -
Consider this a reply ! Tough to assign a value without knowing the medal. As you know, EK I's (around $150) are common and Military Max Joseph's (several thousand $) are not.... The in "betweeners" usually run anywhere from a cuple hundred to about $600 with some, like a Saxon Military St. Henry pushing $1,000. You'll see some websites which are about double these prices, but I think on the "open" market you'll find these right in the ballpark. Your turn..........

Knight with swords (gold) - $ 675.00 Knight with swords (silver/gilt) - $ 275.00 ditto but also with swords on ring - rare ditto but only with swords on ring - rare |

If it's silver/gilt with no enamel defects I can tell you to expect closer to $600 for it. I would not let the price charged by a particular US dealer define what you will get since the once I am think of is my baromete of the value of things - I halve his prices.... They are getting pretty difficult to find and I expect the closer we get to the anniversary (2014), the higher the value. If yuo're patient, you can probably make out better in a few years....
