Title Knight's Cross of Zvonimir
Nationality Croatian
Period 1941-44
Sold

This rare order was given by the Fascist government of Croatia for services in the field to their own troops, also to German armed forces serving in the Balkans, in particular SS Prinz Eugen Mountain Division. This grade is the lowest order of the Cross, the next lowest grade being the medal of the order.

The condition is excellent throughout and I believe it has the correct ribbon. (Zvonimir is the most important Croatian saint - or a king, or both - I will check.)

testimonials

[From a vendor, rather than a buyer]

I'm delighted that you are happy with the badge and I hope you can sell it to someone who will value owning it.

I tried to sell it on eBay but they won't accept Nazi items. I then contacted several dealers via a Google search who mostly offered me £40-£50 after some haggling. Most of the other dealers tried to conceal its true value in their replies and also lacked manners which doesn't inspire confidence.

Ultimately it's about trust. I should think that most prospective sellers have done their own research and therefore know roughly what their item is worth. You were the only dealer who had the integrity to concede that my valuation was approximately correct and I respect your comment that you can't offer this as you need to make a profit. Your honest approach is greatly appreciated and I felt comfortable taking the risk in sending it to you.

Thank you for a smooth transaction
