An Iron Cross First Class 1939 in its Original Presentation Case and with the Matching Maker’s Outer Cardboard Box.
The Iron Cross is probably an early War production, not maker marked, unissued, and is almost mint. 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 white velvet, and white artificial silk in the top. Case is about mint. The outer pale cream 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’. This is very slightly rubbed. On the side is printed the maker’s name ‘Rudolf Souval Wien 62/VII’,
extremely fine £300-£400
