Title Landwehr cross, officer's field cap
Nationality German
Period 19th century
Price £95.00

This impressed silver cross (5cm square) would have been worn in the 19th century, anywhere from Waterloo through to the Franco-Prussian war of 1871. It would probably have been worn on the soft field cap or shako. It doesn't have the usual logo of Mit Gott etc. However, it is almost certainly a Prussian example on account the Maltese cross design.

The condition is excellent for its age and the central field of the badge has a stamped design to give a matt effect.
