Here’s your chance to pick up a very nice lightweight German Cross in Gold. Correct die flaw in the starburst and polished highlights on the wreath. The photos do not do this piece justice! Reverse pin is marked 20 which is for the producer C.F. Zimmermann and has a 4 rivet reverse. This piece has just the right amount of patina and is stunning in hand. A textbook example with great character. The invasion of Russia saw the massive engagement of German troops, and certainly an important increase in acts of bravery. The German Cross was created on 28 September 1941 by Adolf Hitler in order to publicly reward the heroism of the German Legions dispatched to defeat Bolshevism. The silver class was awarded for repeated acts of bravery or achievement outside of combat. Free shipping ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD & I don’t charge PayPal fees like some of the other guys!
