Motorhead Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I love these FA crosses! Be careful-they are very addictive......this one is a very nice example of a wartime awarded "Knauer" piece-could you post some more shots of the case? Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike K Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Hi Naoki,As Micha states, that is a nice wartime FA1X.My understanding on the award boxes for these is that they were a tight fitting square box with a "Crown + FA" in a circle on the outside and the Knauer logo on the inside of the lid.I think this particular case could have been for any item Kanuer made. Let's wait for what others have to say though.RegardsMike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Concur with Mike... not the typical award box for 1.kl. kreuz.... that's not to say it wasn't used, but certainly not the typical one we find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 So, bottom line for me would be enjoy your cross.... it probably left Knauer that way.... even if it might have been in another box once upon a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
