Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwerter mit Verleihungstüte

[jojo12]

Hello,

could you tell me if it's real? The medal seems to be made of tombak but I'm not sure.

Does the points of the cross need to be checked because they don't seem to be equal? Maybe it has fallen once?

Thanks for your help.

Photo of the front will help but first look makes me say an OK piece. Appears to have a little bit of damage up top at the ring and one bit of the cross. NH

ok, 2 new photo's uploaded

Presentation bag manufacturer marking for Grossman matches the number 11 on the ring. Nice example. NH

Hi Neil,do you think the medal is damaged?

[Neil Hever]

Look at the ring. It appears to be bent a little bit. I suppose that affects the value slightly. Otherwise, looks good. NH

ok, it's still collectible though? it's around 40 euro's.

[Neil Hever]

A bargain! I'd expect double that amount from a dealer or more. I would buy these all day long for 42 Dollars. NH

Ok Neil,I just bought it,thanks for the advice. :-)

An original Grossmann set in nice condition. The pouch itself is actually much harder to find than the cross.
