    Hello all,

    I am considering buying this semi relic Iron Cross 1st class. It's for a display of hard-worn WW2 insignia and it would really look the part, I feel. However, as I never buy any WW2 German items without checking it first on the forum, I'd really appreciate if you could tell me your thoughts, and/or any other information.

    Best wishes,

    I'm a little suspicious of this. The core looks as though it has corrosion more in keeping with an alloy than a ferrous metal, have you been able to test it with a magnet? Pictures do not expand enough to make a better judgement either.

    Cheers,

    Hello gents,

    Thanks for your replies. Woolgar, could I ask whether it being manufactured by Souval explains Steve's point about what appears to be an alloy as opposed to iron centre?
