Superb, 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse mit Schw.' being a maker- (ie. '65'-) marked (and/or 'Buntmetall'-based!) specimen by the maker: (ie. 'Hersteller') 'Klein u. Quenzer' that comes stored in its original, luxuriously-styled KvK-etui

The attractive award is a detailed and clearly maker- (ie. '65'-) marked so-called: 'Buntmetall'- (ie. 'Tombak-') based specimen that was just minimally used and/or worn: it came still stored in its original (and truly fairly luxuriously-styled!) black-coloured etui as produced, issued and/or stored for decades. The attractive - and I deem typical early-war-period - specimen is executed in somewhat tarnished, silver-coloured- (and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based!) metal and comes in an overall very nice- (albeit just minimally worn- and/or used-), condition. The naturally non-magnetic- and/or non-vaulted cross shows a somewhat tarnished age-patina but has not recently been cleaned or polished: it still retains almost all of its 'frosted' silverish-coloured finish as can be seen on the pictures. The cross comes naturally mounted onto its functional (flute-shaped) pin- and/or: period catch (ie. catch-set-up) which are both present and unaltered (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece - which shows a clearly present makers'-designation on the back of the pin (as more often encountered by pieces produced by this maker) - comes as found and/or stored for decades. The etui comes in an equally nicely preserved condition: it is fully functional (and shows the printed, detailed and/or silverish-grey-coloured 'KvK'-symbol ie. silhouette on its top). The etui has a fully preserved, black-coloured- (ie. velvet-based-) interior-section (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a great occasion to acquire a very attractive and fully complete and neatly maker-marked: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse mit Schwerter'-set for a justified price!
