Hello!
It's the third republic, I understand. But it would be desirable to define an epoch more precisely.
Please, if it's possible.

First (colourless ribbon again):



Second (it has hallmark AXC):


Best regards

Hello Victor,

AXC is for Adrien Chobillon, a famous parisian manufacturer (from 1912 until 1979 when sold to Arthus Bertrand).

IIIrd Republic (1870-1940) Legion of Honour were made between 1870 and 1951, I'm not sure it's possible to date them exactly.
1870 on the averse

IVth Republic (1946-1958) LoH were made between 1951 and 1962
star on the averse

Vth Republic (since 1958) are made since 1962.
star on the averse
"29 Floréal an X" on the observe (date of the creation of the LoH in the republican calendar)

As you can see, to call them IIIrd, IVth ot Vth RP is not exact as the dates of manufacturing do not coincide exactly with the dates of each Republic, it's more a collector name.

Hello!
Thanks for answer.
As I have understood, it's necessary to leave an invention to define time of manufacture of "Legions" of IIIrd republic.
There are no ways to define, that it was before Great War or after it. Before the Second World War or after it?
In Russia we have the same questions, also there are not answers.

Best regards,

Hello Victor,

Yes, hard to date a Legion of Honour. The only way could be by the hallmarks but it's not easy. For example your Chobillon Legion of Honour was made between 1912 and 1951 but it's hard to be more precise.

Good evening,

Regards,
Victor.
