Here is your chance to own a beautiful spange to the Iron Cross 1st class. Produced by BH Mayer and it is in excellent condition overall with lots of frosting remaining. Complete in the period case of issue. Case has only the lightest shelf wear from storage over the years. Near impossible to upgrade in my professional opinion. Extremely detailed and guaranteed authentic. A holder of the 1914 Iron Cross could be awarded a second or higher grade of the 1939 Iron Cross. To permit the two medals to be worn together, a “1939 Clasp” ( Spange ) would be worn on the original 1914 Iron Cross. It depicted a national eagle clutching an oak leaf wreath surrounding a swastika above a trapezoid bearing the year 1939 . The clasp was attached to the 1914 Iron Cross medal ribbon. The ribbon was then worn through a tunic button of the uniform. Free shipping ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD & I don’t charge PayPal fees like some of the other guys!
