Can someone identify the distinctive features of the 'Telge', the 'Carniol' and the other versions of this medal?

Hallo Gentlemen, technically the dates are not engraved, but hand stamped into the medal. The reason for this version, I am told is a few hundred of the earlier versions were produced with a design flaw (missing dates and word MELE) so the factory decided to hand stamp them, rather than send them back to be melted down.

Variations in my collection:-
Number 1:- judging by the style of "court-mounting" ribbon I believe this came off a German Ribbon bar. "P. TELGE" Military Variant. Number 2 :- "P. TELGE" Civil Service Variant. (Coincidently the second Romanian Medal to belong to my collection, found in a Bavarian Flea-market about 8 years ago.) Number 3:- "P. TELGE" Military Variant, Triangular ribbon, with wide Black center stripe & wide yellow edge stripes. Number 4:- ""P.TELGE" Military Variant, with stamped dates "1866 - 1906" and the word "MELE".
