(K241) A Rare example of a Paper Packet for the Iron Cross Ribbon. It has been stated by some books that these were the last awards to be made, when stocks of the iron cross were exhausted on the front, as it was only the ribbon that was worn. Very scarce to find either way, the paper packet is maker marked as well as titled stating it is only the ribbon in black ink to the front and has a Berlin maker to the reverse. A very rare and collectable iron cross variation. GBP £175.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(H159) A Cased Iron Cross 1st Class by the maker No. 4. The cross being of third reich manufacture, is in fact an imperial 1914 issue and is one of the official Steinhauer replacements. The cross retains all it's frosted and beaded finish and also the iron centre retains all of it's blackened finish. The soldering on the edge of the cross is very good but there are some gaps between the inner v's. It is not splitting as such, it is just not soldered up on these arms, as all four are the same. The black paint that has been applied, has been done via the paint dipping technique where the cross was finished and then dipped and then the wax coating to the silver frame was burnt off as the paint was hardened, which is of standard manufacture of this type. The case which is the slightly domed type, and has rounded corners, has the award in stencilled outline to the lid. The box has a steel hinge and is openend by a magnetic press stud and has a white silk lid and has a white hinge covering. The white flocked base is nice and clean apart from the wear of the cross to it and the case would have been put down as near mint had it not been for this wear. The cross though is virtually mint. A nice item that was picked up at the end of the war and has been stored away in a drawer until now. GBP £325. 00(UK Pounds)
|
(K1393) A Well used and worn Iron Cross 2nd Class in Paper Packet. The cross is an unmarked example and is of standard quality and construction with an iron centre and a silver frame encompassing the iron centre. This has turned black over the years. The cross comes complete with a piece of original ribbon that is nice and clean and has been mounted for wear with a safety pin, this has been removed now. The packet is well torn with all the pieces intact but is more for display than anything else. It is maker marked to the reverse E Ferd Wiedmann. GBP £95.00 (UK Pounds)

CIVIL LONG SERVICE AWARDS (Faithful Service Crosses)
|
(J556) A 25 Year Faithful Service Cross for civilian employment, in it's red Card Case of Award. The cross is in near mint condition with no enamel damage to it. It has toned over the years, leaving it a oxidised silver colour. The blue ribbon is complete with it's sew on pin and is fairly clean and the watered type. The card case is in nice overall condition with the usual handling wear you would expect. There is also a crease or scratch running down the length of the case from top to bottom. All the corners are relatively good and the case is maker marked to the underside of the lid Friedrich Keller Oberstein. A nice example to acquire. GBP £60.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(J1346) A 40 year Faithful Service Cross in it's Case of Issue. The cross is in near mint condition with no enamel damage. The ribbon is nicely water flecked of blue silk and is complete with it's original pin. There is no enamel damage to the cross and it is frosted and burnished. The push button stud is in full working orderl. The red case is in good used condition though with the white silk being in reasonable condition even the hinge cover is still intact. The case also shows wear and tear, another usual factor. There is a nice 40 gold blocked emblem to the lid, also the maker's name Deschler under the lid. Nice to find these crosses are becoming harder and harder to acquire. GBP £80.00 (UK Pounds)
|
CIVIL DEFENCE & SOCIAL WELFARE SERVICE AWARDS
|
(K963) A Luftwaffe Air Defence Medal in Case of Issue. The award is the 2nd class and states so in black letters to the outside of the case. There are some stains to the external part of the case that may with a little gentle cleaining, be removed. I will leave that to the purchaser. The case still has it's paper hinge and is complete with but some splits to the edging, nothing too serious though. Inside, contains the fine zinc medal which is unmarked and a length of ribbon. The highlights to the award are polished with the lowlights oxidised. The award has no major defects and is of standard cast construction. GBP £160.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K1227) A Nice example of an Early Cased Olympic Games Medal. The award is of early quality silver plated steel with frosting and burnishing.

FLOWER WARS SERVICE AWARDS FOR MEMELLAND, AUSTRIA & SUDENTANLAND (13th March, 1st Oct Etc)
|
(K1348) A Very Nice Cased 1st October Medal. The medal is a nice bright bronze colour, and is mounted on the salmon pink ribbon as opposed to the red striped type. The award also has the original pin to the ribbon and can only be described as near mint. The case that the award comes in has the usual handling wear and tear but has in the inside of the lid, the maker's name of Paul Meybauer and address and the fact that he is a military order maker. Very nice to find with this label, I have only ever seen one other of these labels and that was in a police long service cross. The silk hinge protector has split, but this is nothing too serious. GBP £100.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(L121) A Very Rare example of a 13th March Medal 1938 in Bronze. The medal is identical to it's silver counterpart and was probably put through the manufacturing process as either a memel or 1st October. These errors do not turn up very often, this being only the 2nd one I have had in 20+ years. The medal is unmounted and came in a paper packet with a pice of ribbon. The paper packet has something written in pencil and I can only work out the word "medaille" along with other words. It may be the medal was to be returned to the manufacture to be re-finished as it has the manufacturers name to the packet. This is just hazarding a guess and is my opinion. Either way, a very unusual and interesting award. Good talking point. GBP £135.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K651) A Gold Mothers Cross in it's Case of Issue. The cross is of nice quality and construction with no enamel damage. The enamel though has aged and isn't a clear white. The gold plating has a nice frosted and burnished finish. The reverse has the standard 2nd pattern motto engraved being the date and Hitler's signature. The cross comes complete with it's full length ribbon that is nice and clean and unsewn. This is contained in it's case of issue which is of standard construction with the maker's name of Wilh Deumer under the lid to the white silk. The hinge cover silk has split which is often the case. The case itself though is nice and clean and still has the gold emblem embossed to the lid. Very nice condition. GBP £110.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K1018) A Nice Mother's Cross in virtually mint condition in Gold in it's Case of Issue. The cross has a complete piece of original length of ribbon which is unsewn up. There is no enamel damage to the cross and it is the standard 16th Dezember 1938 Adolf Hitler type. The cross is contained in it's original hard case of issue that has the monogram block to the lid. There is also the maker's name of Franz Scheurle to the underside of the silk. The unusual thing about the case though is that they have put the hinge and press stud the wrong way round so that the emblem block to the lid is facing the wrong way, as is the white flocked two compartment base. The case is nice and clean, a nice variation set showing an error that isn't often encountered. GBP £100.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(L34) A Silver Mother's Cross in it's Paper Packet of Issue. The cross is complete with it's original ribbon which is sewn up for wear.

It comes complete with it's original ribbon that has been ironed flat but shows where the cross was worn. Then you have the card case.

WAR and QUALIFICATION BADGES and MEDALS
|
(H1526) A late war Pilot's Badge in a late war Case. The badge is constructed of zinc with a slightly better silver wreath. The badge has nice fretted out wing tips and a nice swastika. The highlights of the wreath are burnished and the swastika also is silvered. Contained in a well used late war case with a card base of blue flocking that has all but worn away. The badge has the designation to the top. The hinge fabric has split. Still a nice original untouched example. GBP £675.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(G1395) A mid to late war Close Combat Clasp in Bronze in it's frail cardboard box of issue. The card case was originally a one piece construction, but this has split. The case though is complete ie both pieces are there and has the award's designation printed in black onto the card. The clasp is a mid to late war standard 1st pattern FLL clasp, with a separately soldered hinge and hook and magnetic back plate. The clasp, although it shows no wear, has faded giving a two toned bronze and silver finish. Very scarce to find, in case. GBP £695.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(J1446) A nice example of a mid war Maker Marked Schwerin High Seas Fleet Badge in Paper Packet. The badge is the type manufactured from fine zinc which is then over plated with the gilt and silver, and as such shows some fine bubbling to the reverse. The reverse also shows the maker's trade name and manufacturer's name being laid out in the usual form in raised letters of Fec Adolf Bock Ausf Schwerin Berlin. The gilt to the front of the badge is virtually all complete as is the silver finish. This has toned over the years but it is not bad at all. The badge also comes in it's original blue paper packet with the name of the award printed in black to the front and the maker's name Schwerin Berlin to the back. The front has faded making it an off green colour but the back inside is a nice vibrant blue. Very rare to find in this condition and with the added packet. Only the second I have ever had in 25 years. GBP £750.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K1536) A 25 Panzer Assault Badge in Silver being a Near Mint example although the hinge has had a factory repair to it. The badge still retains most of it's silvered finish and has a countersunk hinge and hook. The pin is magnetic and the rivets to the reverse are nice and tight. Marked JFS, the badge comes in a small card box. This has probably protected the badge over the years. The box is in virtually mintish condition also and the item was stored away by the previous collector. He also sent it to Niemann for a guarantee which is included. This was done in 2009. A very nice badge to find. GBP £2250.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(L431) A Cased Luftwaffe Flak Badge of nice quality and construction. The flak badge is of mid war manufacture and retains much of its original finish although this has now been pulled in with just the lacquer retaining partial finish. The badge is an unmarked example with a nicely soldered hinge and hook. The eagle is then soldered to the badge and the eagle still retains most of its original factory lacquer. The case is a mid war example with a blue flocked base and silk underlined lid that has the usual KB stampings to the base. The external part of the case of the flak badge has Flak Kampf ABZ stamped in three lines in gold lettering to the lid with some age staining to the leatherette covering and sun damage. It makes the case look more green than purple. Having said all this, still a nice example. GBP £499.00 (UK Pounds)

WAR MERIT CROSSES & MEDALS
|
(F1362) A nice example of an early issue War Merit Cross 1st class without swords in it's Case of issue. The cross
is an early example by the maker No. 50 and this although difficult to read, is stamped on the pin. The cross has the usual
frosted and burnished finished although it is slightly toned due to the years. These crosses are quite scarce to acquire
as less of these were issued as to their counterparts with swords and it is nice to find such a nice early quality
example. The case is a standard two piece hinged case, opened by a press stud. The inside of the case is quite clean
with the silk hinge covering being intact. The outside of the case, which has the silver emblem of the cross embossed
to the lid, shows a high amount of usage and wear with the leatherette covering being worn away in places. This can
be seen from the scan. All in all, a nice complete set to find. GBP £195.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(G354) A Cased War Merit Cross 1st Class Without Swords. This is the early nickel style that is of good quality and construction. The cross still retains a high proportion of it's frosted and burnished finish. The cross comes in a case which shows excessive wear and tear as though someone has scraped out the silver emblem to the lid also. The inside of the case is stained and worn and it gives the general over all well used appearance to the case which doesn't ring true with the cross. Priced for the condition of both items, the case could be replaced later with a better one. GBP £175.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(J1307) A nice early example of a War Merit Medal being constructed from bronze/brass. The medal is in very good condition and complete with a nice original long piece of original ribbon. The award comes in it's Paper Packet which is maker marked and has the firm's trade mark as such to the reverse. The packet is in very good conditionand the award is in very good condition. Also GBP £40.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(J1617) A Superb example of the War Merit Cross 1st Class Without Swords In Case of Issue. The cross is a textbook example of the early quality award. The swastika and edge is nicely burnished whereas the rest of the cross is frosted. The maker's trademark of number 1 is stamped to the reverse of the pin to the centre of the widest point. This was part of a group found about 18 months ago by the Deschler family, and these have subsequently been sold off, this is one of the last few to be acquired, as the hoard is now exhausted. The case which is virtually mint, compliments the cross, the black leather flocking shows hardly any wear at all. The silver blocked emblem to the lid is virtually 10)% intact, there is though some minor rusting to the push stud and hinge, but once opened, the inside of the case is again, near mint. The white undersilk
lid has no spotting and the hinge cover is fully intact. The black base is also nice and clean I cannot praise this set enough. We managed to acquire a couple last year and it was snapped up and could have sold it a few times over. If the scan doesn't show just how lovely it is, it's lying!! GPB £250.00 (UK Pounds)
|
(K130) A Nice example of a War Merit Cross Without Swords in it's Packet of Issue. The award is the late type with the cast in eyering and the cross retains most of it's
original bronzed finish as can be seen from the scan. Complete with it's full length original ribbon, it is contained in it's original paper packet of issue that is maker marked Fredrich Orth and has the full awards title to the front. The paper packet has had the flap ripped as can be seen from the scan. Other than this, a nice example. Recently found in a house clearance in Germany. GBP £50.00 (UK Pounds)
