'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' being a non-maker-marked example that comes together with its original- and once-mounted ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') as was produced by a (by me) unidentified maker (ie. 'Hersteller')

The attractive piece - which was surely issued and was once mounted - came together with its folded and/or minimally confectioned (and approx. 16 cms. long-sized-) ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt'). The cross - which is totally void of any makers'-designation - was with certainty never cleaned and has a nice and/or attractive age-patina: it has lost its so-called: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or: polished sides) and has a minimally darkened- (ie. somewhat 'blackened'- ie. stained or tarnished) finish (as can be seen on the pictures). The award - that might well be a by the: company: 'Julius Maurer'-produced cross - has a very nicely preserved, black-finished (ie. somewhat 'satin-like'- ie. somewhat matted-) core: it is totally void of any damage nor paint-loss (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece is just a tiny bit dusty and/or stained but was never cleaned nor polished. This IC was recently found at a German private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply an attractive, non-maker-marked 'EK II. Klasse' that is accordingly priced!
