Title War Service cross with swords, 2nd class
Nationality German
Period c 1939 on
Price £30.00

This could well be a ground find, or perhaps dug out of someone's attic, because only maybe 25% of the original gilt finish survives. However, it has the number 74 punched into the ring, which indicates the maker Carl Meurer & Sohn from Oberstein. These crosses rarely have any maker's mark, which makes up somewhat for the condition.

The ribbon is original, but rather scruffy and slightly soiled.

Just to let you know that the kokarde [cockade] arrived today. Looks great. Definitely original.

I received the item today, you had packed it well and there were no problems with customs. Overall I was happy with it although the blade was a little bit worse than I had imagined, however thank you for your efforts.
