Eisernes Kreuz 2nd Klasse, '11' Grossmann & Co. Wein.
Hi Fella's,
Here's a recent addition that was a spur of the moment purchase. It's a Grossmann & Co. EKII with a magnetic core. The ribbon is a bit short, but it's fitted nicely to the mm'd ribbon ring. I also believe that some of these crosses have a die flaw on the beading, but can't see it on this one. All in all, I'm pretty happy with it.
Regards, Ned.

Very nice cross, Ned. Great condition, and now you've been bitten by the bug, eh?
Re: Eisernes Kreuz 2nd Klasse, '11' Grossmann & Co. Wein.
very nice, the 11 aren't so easy to find (especially in this state of conservation).
