 8221 VERY RARE IRON CROSS 1ST CLASS, SCREWBACK The DOV (Deutscher Offiziersverein) was an association for German officers who, amongst other things, provided private purchase awards such as the Iron Cross. They were not a medal maker as such but had medals made for them from established makers. There are traces of the maker’s mark Z just visible on the end of the screw. The fixing arrangement comprises of a large silver disc which is held in place by a smaller disc which carries the name DEUTSCHER OFFIZIER VEREIN 800. The cross has a real iron core with all of the black paint finish intact. The cross comes in a plain black leatherette private purchase jeweler’s case with push button. This is one of the rare types of WW1 EK1. £495   
 8211 IRON CROSS 1ST CLASS 1914, CASED, SILVER WITH RARE FIXING PRONGS Beautiful Iron Cross 1st class in original issue case. Usual multi-part construction with iron core. The cross features two side hooks or fangs used to better secure the medal to the tunic. This fixing style was used on some Godet made crosses. This cross has no maker marks but is marked for 800 silver on the pin.  £495   
 8209 2 x DAMAGED RUSTY IRON CROSSES 1914 Two real Iron Crosses from WW1, rusty cores, missing rings etc – see pictures  £49   
 8207 MECKLENBURG-SCHWERIN ANNIVERSARY CROSS 90TH FUSILIERS  Mecklenburg-Schwerin cross for the 125 years anniversary of the 90th Fusiliers Regiment of Kaiser Wilhelm. Made in zinc, similar shape and size to the Iron Cross £45 
 8045 IRON CROSS 1ST CLASS EK1 SILVER 1870 IN CASE IRON CROSS 1ST CLASS EK1 SILVER 1870 IN CASE This is a very attractive item being an 1870 FIRST Class cross in original fitted case. Although carrying no maker marks, it appears to be in real silver. The core is magnetic iron and the cross is convex. There were only a handful or 1870 makers and this cross appears to be a private purchase replacement piece made in the 1890 – 1930 period. The case is the dark red/brown type with the usual purple velvet base and upper lid silk. The case is worn and has some staining to the silk and wear to the underside as though it has been stored somewhere damp for many years. The original 1870 struck crosses now command prices in many thousands of pounds and very rarely come up for sale so this one priced accordingly as an officer replacement type.  £550   
 8046 GERMAN FENCING MEDAL GERMAN FENCING MEDAL DEUTSCHER FECHTER BUND A very attractive art deco style medal for fencing. I would date this from 1920/30s.  £25 
 8041 IRON CROSS 2ND CLASS WW1 1914 IRON CROSS 2ND CLASS WW1 1914 A super example of the EK2 with high definition, cast iron core. This was typical of the early issue pieces and retains its original ribbon. The ring is not marked but detail typical of one of the top makers such as Godet or Wagner etc. Some minor rusting which only adds to the character.  £75
