Title Iron Cross, 1st class, 1939
Nationality German
Period c 1939

The clue to this quite well made modern copy is the rough finish to the edges of the silver frame, showing extensive rough file marks (never found on an original), plus the position of the sharp pin on the reverse (within the diameter of the 'nut' rather than beyond it, as is always the case with originals).
