its a knights cross with oak leaves & crossed swords in what looks to be relic condition but whether original or not i cant tell ya
Thanks Nick,
I don't know either, I agree it looks like a Knights cross + oak leaves and swords in poor condition, but these pics are all I've got

verry nice reproduction
ring not centered
bad rim details and so on
hope the price isnt that high
not sure if the fakers would go as far as faking a knights cross in relic condition but then again i wouldn't put anything past them
aah nick come on whe both are long enoufh in this hobby to know that even repro`s are being made as groundug items
put a nice infanterie medal in the ground for 1 year and spray it whit a some soort of acid to get the tone
this knights cross is bad look at the pic from the date you see the arms to close together and bad detail
no offence or something but this one is bad
hi take a look at this one
cheers
I'm still learning and see the ring off center but the wear on the ring would have fooled me
A couple of extra details on the cross from the seller;
CROSS - 47mm WIDE x 52mm (inc loop) WEIGHT 34gms STAMPED 800 SILVER
OAK LEAVES - 20mm WIDE , 25mm TALL WEIGHT 8gms STAMPED 900 21
and the ring looks like it has been re-attached at some period.
Pretty good fake in my estimation, just because they don't show up much, but.............
