Medal ID wanted
Greetings all,

Can anyone please identify the badges in the attachment? These are displayed on the uniform of General Major Walter von Eberhardt.

The left one seems to have the letters "L" and "J" and the words on the scroll suggest that it is the 100th anniversary of something while the dates show "22 Mai 1807-1907.

The one on the right appears to be the Star of the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross -but other sources indicate that this was only awared to Hindenburg in WW1.

Your help as always appreciated.

Eric
