This is a marvelous framed commemoration of his service during WW I for a German soldier. The period frame is black with gold interior highlights, sports a glass front cover, and measures 19 ½” x 23 ½.” Kaiser Wilhelm II’s portrait appears at the extremely colorful print’s top. Flanking him are the Kings of Saxony and Bavaria, as well as the Grand Dukes of Baden and Hesse-Darmstadt. Decorative motifs that are both military and patriotic in nature cover the print. A careful examination reveals the figures of three soldiers whose heads have been replaced by pasted-in black and white photos of the same soldier. One pose reveals his shoulder straps, which are for Infanterie-Regiment Nr 66. An actual 1914 Iron Cross 2nd Class has been pasted to the print’s bottom center. Clearly the featured soldier won it during WW I. The presentation’s overall condition is very fine. [Due to the size and nature of this item, additional shipping and handling will be required.

This is a mini group of a 1914 Iron Cross 2nd Class and an award document. The man who received the award was a member of Infanterie-Regiment Nr 7 from Bavaria. The award was made in 1920, after WW I ended. The document has been laminated in plastic (not by me). One can see the stains and age on its reverse. One can also tell the document has been folded. The Iron Cross is on an original ribbon that measures 3.”

IRON CROSS – 1914 – 1ST CLASS – LOW VAULTED – HALLMARKED FOR GODET – IN ORIGINAL PRESENTATION CASE
This is a very elegant, high-quality 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class. It is a low vaulted example that was privately-purchased. The paint on the obverse rates at about 90%, with some loss of paint. The frame is very high-quality and displays a wonderful patina.
As we examine the reverse, the first thing we see is a swollen pin, often found on higher quality EK’s. Stamped on the pin on the reverse we see “G” for Godet. Godet was one of Kaiser Wilhelm II’s house jewelers and produced some of the finest decorations in Germany.
The final detail is the decoration’s presentation case. The case has a decorative finish to it, with an Iron Cross outline in silver on its top. Inside the case, we see a purple silk liner for the case’s top half. The bottom half, which is fitted for the Iron Cross, is also purple. Structurally, the case is solid and in excellent condition.
Overall, it is a very fine set that would make for an excellent addition to your collection. $850.00
