Description

The listing, WWII German Iron Cross Second Class has ended.

Center of the cross is rusted and the whole thing needs a good cleaning. On the ring of the cross it is stamped 800. You can Google it and see it is worth a lot even rusted which I'm sure if you are a collector it can easily be removed. However I'm not willing to remove it because I don't want to damage or take the price value out of it. Front is marked 1939 and the back is marked 1813.

~~UPDATE~~

World War II German Model 1939 Iron Cross 2nd Class. The Frame is silver toned patina on both sides. The central core is Iron which is why it's rusted and has a stove black finish. The suspension ring is marked 800.

Thank you for your comment. I've been trying to find information on this piece for months now and that was the only site I could find a decent amount of information on.

Also its only the iron part of this cross that rusts. The Iron Cross silver ranged from 800-900 parts silver plate for some awards. Not all 2nd Class crosses where silver thou. So this one is a little higher end even in its current condition.

I see it all the time. The personal history gets lost on the owner of the item as well as how it got here. But it is usually the case with small items like these. If you had documents and proof of where and who it came from than you would have a very pricey piece there. Either way its authentic and really cool! I wish you luck!!!!!
