Re: Knights cross 57
The value depends on when exactly it was made , by whom and what condition , have a look in the Bundeswehr forum whcih is where you will find much info about 57 Awards !!by griffinz
As with most things photos would be needed !!

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Re: Knights cross 57
As Paul says, it depends! Type A or Type B? Early, middle or late manufacture?
As always pics on the forum and opinions of the members will guide you and advise you but I guess it's too late in this instance. The best you can do is either not buy it until you've put it up for appraisal or at the very least get a return deal if it turns out to be not what you wanted. Do you know how much you're going to pay?

Re: Knights cross 57
Could be anywhere from $150 - $1000 depending on the points raised above. There's 57 RKs and then there's 57 RKs and they were made from 1957 right through until current day.
Re: Knights cross 57
hi this is the cross and in(K946) A Nice Early 1957 unmarked Knights Cross of the Iron Cross. The cross has a magnetic centre and retains virtually all of it's black painted finish. The frame is the wartime style for a Steinhauer and Luck and is in very nice condition. Very nicely soldered up and handfinished. These crosses are commanding more money as time goes on as fewer of these were issued than their third reich counterparts.
GBP £500.00 (UK Pounds)

Re: Knights cross 57
This isn't the early '57er RK, note the convex oakleaves, an early '57 will have concave oakleaves. Please see my example below which cost me just shy of $1000. For £500 ($770) I think you can do better. Don't rush this! I almost rushed into a later RK purchase myself then held off for this early example and I can say i'm very glad I did.
Re: Knights cross 57
thanks a lot for that saved me lol will contact him to let him know.
Re: Knights cross 57
Glad to help. The guy I bought my 1st pattern off had a couple of 2nd patterns going for $500 for a plain jane RK and $650 for an RK w/OL&S. He may still have them for sale. I can PM you his details if you like?
Re: Knights cross 57
Good work Glenn , £500 is definately too much for this Cross
