M-1657 Steinhauer & Lück Knight's Cross
Here's an honest field worn example of the coveted RK by S&L of Lüdenscheid. This is a textbook cross that is correctly marked with the "micro" 800 silver mark on both the frame and the ribbon loop. The paint is in fine condition with a few small chips as show on the swas. Three piece with a magnetic core. For those of you checking this against references the 3 o'clock are exhibits the typical beginnings of the notorious beading flaw of the type A. Included is approx 4" piece of original ribbon with a string device that has been hand sewn in place as was quite common in the period. Exc+

M-2021 German Cross in Gold by Otto Klein &
Co.
Couldn't resist!! Here's a very nice example showing a minimal amount of wear with 99% of the black remaining to the tips of the black tombac rays. The swas. enamel is very nice. There is no chipping but a couple, (2) tiny pinprick blemishes, no scratches. You will need to get an eye loop to find them! Multi-piece constructed and assembled with hollow rivets. Reverse plate is maker marked "134" stamped in the center reverse in incluse relief. This is for the well known maker Otto Klein & Co. of Hanau am Main. Both the hinge and the retaining clip are correctly seated in recesses in the reverse plate. Weight is 45g. Textbook example NM
