Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1939 1. Klasse

[mike1]

Hi guys,
I would like to ask you for help with this cross. There is number I think 51 maker Eduard Goriach & Sohne Gablonz/N but as I have found this maker did not make iron crosses but I did not find if they made these KVK crosses. Can you write me if this cross is good one or fake ?
Thank you, Mike

As far as I can find, they made KVK II's but I can not find any reference that they made KVK I's.

Hi,

Most certainly a fake.

Check this thread. Here is a KVK2 with swords marked "51" but with same rear setup as yours.

Also a EK2: Very nice EKI marked 51... - Wehrmacht-Awards.com Militaria Forums
