Iron Cross 2nd Class with Ribbon Bar

Please note this item is no longer available and you were redirected to our Archives.

Here’s a good example of a Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse. The 2nd Class Iron Cross was awarded for an act of bravery in the face of the enemy, or actions that were clearly above and beyond the call of duty. It is a multi-piece, die struck construction that has been soldered together. The single piece core is constructed out of an iron metal base that has been black enamel painted. The two piece frame is constructed out of a nickel silver base that has been silver washed and polished. A final protectant lacquer was applied over the entire award. The obverse features; a pattée style cross that has a centrally placed embossed mobile swastika and “1939” to the lower arm, which is all on a black base and surrounded by a silvered ribbed/beaded row and a flat outlying border. The reverse features that same black base with a raised “1813” to the lower arm and has that same ribbed and flat outlying border. To the top is a soldered on tombak loop and an unmarked ring which holds approximately 9 inches of red, white and black rayon ribbon. The ribbon has some remnants of glue from when these was removed from the Vet's scrapbook. The whole piece shows even wear and patina. The cross measures approximately 1 ¾ inches wide and tall. Included is tthe guy's ribbon bar. A nice one!
