Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse

[Rossi]

Hello,

Came across these two cased Iron Crosses. I may possibly pick up and was curious to your opinions. Any opinions welcome?

1st one is Iron Cross First Class by Klein & Quenzer.





The second is a Iron Cross First Class by C.F. Zimmerman

Hello Kirk,
They are both good original crosses. They are also both quality makers.
The Zimmermann might be a little less common with both the PKZ and LDO marking of "20" and "L/52".
Ralph.

P.S. Both of the cases are original and are considered earlier cases due to the round catch button.

Oh, and please post them separately next time.

Rossi,

Well done on acquiring a pair of wonderful crosses! (Sorry, came in late on this one. I assumed you had already acquired them.)

Will do. Thanks Ralph. With me being German / Italian I had I guess too little patience with forum speed being Warp Factor Turtle to post in 2 threads. My bad. You can be sure I will post separately when I pick them up. Thanks Ralph and hope it is warming to the north. 44 and snow in Midwest USA the next couple days.

Two beautiful cased iron crosses Rossi. Klein und Quenzer is really wonderful and that Zimmermann is quite special becuse it is double marked and that is pretty rare example you have there. I hope that you will purchase them both. And please post some additional pictures of these two lovely pieces if you succed to acquire them.

Best regards,
Franko
