Product Information
Specification
Austria - 1st Republic: Decoration of Honor for 
Services to the Austrian Republic, Great Silver 
Cross, V Class, 1922 - 1934 (or Order of Merit of 
the 1st Austrian Republic, Officer's Cross, 1934-
1938).
Maker marked by Souval in Vienna.
The Decoration of Honor for Services to the 
Austrian Republic was instituted in 1922, in 7 
Classes and 3 Medals, as the premier military 
award of the newly established 1st Austrian 
Republic. 
It could also be awarded to non-Austrian citizens. 
The Great Silver Cross as of this example was 
awarded to Officers who held the rank of Major 
General. 
The award was restructured in 1934 and its name
changed to Austrian Order of Merit. 
While the award criteria, the statues and the 
classes changed the Crosses and Medals 
remained the same and so did the rank of the
recipients.
The award was abolished in 1938 following the 
annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany.
