Trevor,

There are differing views on the L15 on whether they are fake, post war or good. I am not an expert but the information I have read tends to lean me towards good or post war, however, I will state that this just my personal opinion.

Trevor,

Not sure whether all were marked but I have never seen an unmarked one. There are some other features which will help tell whether it is a Josef Rücker & Sohn or not though. 

Trevor,

This medal was never marked with a '57'. It is one of the rarer types, good find.

Regards,

Graham

Bayda,

Richard,

Not sure why the swords are on the ribbon. I know they were on the medal ribbon bar to distinguish between the non-combat and combat awards.

Hear is another but with a Long Service Decoration 3rd class for 9 years service as well:

Great photo.

I found this on the net that might be of some help: -

Max Immelmann in Valenciennes after his 7th victory. A Morane Saulnier Type P from the British Air Force was shot down by Max Immelmann over Raismes on December 15, 1915. The aircraft has serial number 5087 and was flown by Charles Edward Tudor-Jones, second lieutenant of the N ° 3 Squadron, reports the Commonwealth War Graves Commission . Tudor-Jones is resting at the Raismes Communal Cemetery (Plot II, row A, grave 3). The shooter was Lieutenant Alan Victor Hobbs who was killed in the process. He is buried next to the pilot (Plot II, Row A, Grave 4).
