Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern by “4” - Steinhauer & Lück of Lüdenscheid. The 2nd Class War Merit Cross with Swords was awarded to soldiers for exceptional service in battle above and beyond the call of duty. It is constructed out of a die struck zinc base that has been bronze washed. It depicts a pebbled Maltese style cross with two crossed broad swords and a wreathed swastika / “1939” (reverse) to the center. To the top is a loop and matching “4” maker marked ring which holds approximately 9 inches of black, white and red rayon ribbon. The award measures 1 13/16 inches wide and tall. The zinc has absorbed the bronze wash but there is no oxidation. A great piece!
