      Although you have already reached a decision, I thought I would submit the dates. Here is the "1939" from the "22" marked Iron Cross in 2nd Class. . .

      No, it's my thinking that these last two two examples are from the manufacturer B?rger & Company, Berlin (22).

      Here's another for comparison. . .
