This is an extremely fine World War I German Iron Cross 2 Class in a presentation case that is in excellent condition. The cross is with a clean, stove black, magnetic iron core mounted on a nicely age toned silver frame and with a raised, well-defined serrated bead border. The detail to the crown, ‘W’ monogram, and 1914 date is sharp and well-defined. The ring is incised with the letter ‘W’ for the premiere maker Wagner & Sohn of Berlin. The cross is housed in its 4x4-inch round front, maroon leatherette case which features a facsimile of the cross in silver leaf at the upper left corner. The interior of the case is with a fitted ivory bed upon which the cross rests. The interior white satin lid pad has a printed image of a 1914 Iron Cross above the words ‘Der Dank des Vaterlandes!’ which translates ‘The Gratitude of the Fatherland!’. Pinned to the upper left of the lid lining is a 1914 Iron Cross and 1914-1918 Hindenburg Honor Cross stick pin. The push button spring button is functional and holds the case securely closed.8952
