This is a consignment item. It is a privately-purchased 1870 Iron Cross. The cross is flat (non vaulted). The paint is very clean and in fine condition, overall. It rates about 97%. The frame has an extra fine patina on it, and has not been cleaned in decades. The reverse features a mirrored finish and a swollen pin. It displays no hallmarks for either the manufacturer or its silver content. It is most likely a later example from approximately 1885 through 1905.

IRON CROSS – 1914 – 1st CLASS – NON VAULTED – HALLMARKED .925 SILVER – ORIGINAL PRESENTATION CASE
Today we are offering a top-quality 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class. The cross is flat (non vaulted) and is similar in style to presentation Iron Crosses. The obverse’s paint is in excellent condition. The frame and, in particular the beading, (which is as fine as I have seen) has a first-rate patina. As we examine the reverse, we see the same attention to detail. The catch is a bit larger than normal and has “superior-quality” screaming from it. To the catch’s right is where we really see the Iron Cross’s excitement and superiority revealed. It is hallmarked .925 silver. This is extremely high for an Iron Cross, as most that have silver hallmarks of .800. [I have seen a few Iron Crosses hallmarked .950, but that level is quite unusual]. Its presentation case is also quite striking. It is black leatherette and measures 1″ x 2 ½” x 2 ½.” Embossed on the outer lid is a silver Iron Cross that duplicates the Iron Cross housed within, complete to its 1914 date. Inside the case, we see a white silk upper lid. The cross is housed in the lower half, which has a brown velvet cover. The case shows a bit of honest age, but is visually and structurally sound. This is an amazing set and one of the finest Iron Crosses we have offered you.

This is an award document and actual decoration for the 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class. The document is to Leutnant der Reserve Schmidt. The document, which measures 6 1/2″ x 8 1/4,” is a late-war example. In fact, it was awarded in October 1918. Schmidt served in Fußartillerie-Regiment Nr 50. The document has been signed by an oberstleutnant and regiment commander. The 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class is a “KO” issued example, with normal wear. It is one of the latest Iron Cross documents I have seen that was still issued during WW I.
