High Hungarian and Finnish Awards in the State Historical Museum

[Alexander85]

Good day!

Awards of the Kingdom of Hungary and Finland, collection of the State Historical Museum in Moscow.
In museum online database they are mistakenly dated and attributed. It's also unknown - to whom these awards were awarded.
But, there is speculation that the awards with swords belonged to Erich Raeder.

Are there any official statistics on awarding such high awards?

1. Magyar Érdemrend.
Star of Grand Cross with Holy Stephen's Crown and swords.


2. Magyar Érdemrend.
Star of Grand Cross with Holy Stephen's Crown.


3. Vapaudenristin ritarikunta.
Star of Grand Cross with swords.


Regards.
