Very simple , Iron cross first class does not have a ribbon , second class does

Hi Kev, I have moved your thread here to the correct sub forum. Have a look around here.

Cheers, Ade.

I don't think I put the original question quite right "sorry", I've got a Flak officer's tunic with buttonhole ribbon, the ribbon is black, white, red, white, black, so would that be 1st or 2nd class.
Cheers.

Your answer is in post #2.
Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse were either pin back or screw back and were worn directly on the tunic.
