Thanks Munch, This Princess is clever , speaks a lot of foreign languages. Working 40 years is a lot. I was told she never married because she wanted to remain Princess Elisabeth of Denmark. She owns great jewels. --Previous Message-- : The largest medal on Princess Elisabeth is the : Danish Order of Merit in silver, i have read : - sorry, no source - that she is : particularly proud of this medal, as it is : the only one she has "earned" by : working 40 years in the Danish Foreign : Ministry. : Her other medals and orders are all because : she is a princess of Denmark. : : And concerning her coronation brooch: I have : also read that that brooch was given to the : Russian Grand Duchesses that had married : into European reigning houses, like Queen : Alexandrine's mother Anastasia. : : --Previous Message-- : So to see it are commemorative medals, just : like King Christian X 100th Birthday Medal, : Queen Margrethe II's Accesion Medal, Queen : Margrethe II's Silver Jubilee Medal. : : Just a guess. : : :
