A Fine Collection of German Second World War Combat Awards

An Iron Cross First Class 1939 in its Presentation Case and with the Matching Maker’s Outer Cardboard Box.
The Iron Cross is probably a late War production, not maker marked, unissued condition. The case is covered in black artificial leather, with a silver outline of the Cross printed on the flat lid. Inside it is lined on the lower section in cream velvet, and white artificial silk in the top. Case is about mint. The outer pale brown cardboard box has some slight wear and has printed on the top ‘Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse 1939’ and below that ‘Nur vom Empfanger zu offnen’. On the side is printed the maker’s name ‘B.H. Mayer, Pforzheim’, extremely fine £300-£400

This lot was sold as part of a special collection, A Fine Collection of German Second World War Combat Awards.
