IRON CROSS – 1914 – 2nd CLASS – HALLMARKED
This is a fine example of a privately purchased 1914 Iron Cross 2nd Class. It is hallmarked on the jump ring but I cannot make out the markings as the stamping is very faint. This is quite unusual. The paint is in very fine condition. The frame displays a fine patina. The ribbon measures 3 1/2.” The ribbon has been sewn together.

This is an interesting post-WW I Iron Cross 1st Class and award document. As was the case after the Napoleonic Wars ended in 1815 and the Franco-Prussian War ceased in 1871, WW I’s Iron Crosses often took several years to be distributed to their worthy recipients. This is one of the latest awards of the 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class that I have ever encountered. The Besiß-Zeugnis (document), which measures 8 ½” x 6 ½,” was issued in 1924, some six years after WW I’s end. The document is signed by a General der Infanterie. It bears Gruppenkommando 2’s unit stamp. Gruppenkommando 2 was based at Cassel. Along with the Besiß-Zeugnis is a 1914 Iron Cross without a hallmark that shows signs of wear.

This is an award document and 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class for a man attached to Ulanen-Regiment Nr 10. The award was to a Rittmeister Baerecke of that regiment. The document is dated 18 April 1916. The document was issued by the VIII. Armee’s Oberkommando. A rubber stamp for that unit appears in the lower left corner. In the lower right corner, we see that it was signed by an VIII. Armee Staff Adjutant/Oberleutnant.
The 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class that accompanies the document is of the “issued” variety. It is flat. It sports the “KO” on the reverse, hallmarked under the catch. The Iron Cross’s condition is quite pleasing, overall.
