Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse ohne Schwertern, Petz and Lorenz
New today is this lovely War Merit Cross 1st class without swords.
I say lovely, but in the eyes of the Third Reich Government, this cross was nothing of the sort.
Petz and Lorenz, along with Schickle, were the only companies to be prohibited from producing awards after 1941. Poor quality control, manufacturing methods and some other sinister reasons were to be the downfall of these two companies.
So here, rarer than any Juncker is my newest KVK1
