Crown & SWords: Prussian Gold 09

This oversized device for the Prussian Hohenzollern House Order 3rd Class with Swords-- the German Cross in Gold of WW1-- was probably meant for a 25mm width ribbon. But here it is on a 15mm ribbon

It can be seen in an original photo in the In Wear gallery-- see "Buttonholes Ribbons 3" scan.

And for the miniscule EK2 Spange next to it, see "EK Spange Variant 6" and "EK Spange With Crown & Swords."

This was worn by a Knight's Cross and German Cross in Gold recipient.

Courtsey of stogieman.
