Description

A Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse ohne Schwerter; crafted in bronze; with original mint and unworn ribbon, packet of issue, and original wrapping paper; ribbon is vertically striped in red-white-black-white-red; cross measures 48 mm x 48 mm; in fair condition due to heavy corrosion from age alone - not wear. Paper packet of issue with “Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse ohne Schwerter” printed in black in on the obverse, with the maker mark cut out on the reverse; measuring 128 mm x 103 mm; near mint condition.

Footnote: Maker’s label has been purposefully removed/cut from the packet. This was done by factory workers who would sell awards to American GI’s during the post war period who wanted to keep the origin of the awards hidden.
