I am not quite sure what was the use for this oversized Iron Cross, although it appears to be of a patriotic nature. Having said that, it is quite large, measuring 3″ x 2 e.” It is about the size of a Grand Cross. It is stamped and has a loop at the top where it could have been worn as a pendant. However, this is huge! It would have taken up a LOT of space under a lady’s neck. It is stamped and there is a wreath of leaves that connects the arms of the cross. It is more likely that it was used as a wall decoration. This is definitely a different kind of item!

This is a high-vaulted 1914 Iron Cross. The paint on the obverse rates at about 95%. On the reverse we see something that I find particularly interesting. Under the catch is hallmarking for “KO.” This firm, located in Stuttgart, was the primary producer of 1914 1st Class Iron Crosses. These were of the non vaulted (flat) design, however. I cannot remember seeing a vaulted KO Iron Cross 1st Class. It is very well made, and certainly makes for an interesting variation. It is housed in a black leatherette presentation case. Embossed in silver on the outer lid is an Iron Cross’s outline. Inside the case is a fairly standard white silk upper liner and a black velvet lower half, which is fitted to house the cross.
