Here's my humble offering made by W.sch & Co, mint condition with urkunde and what I believe to be the original tissue it came with

Nice Clean Cross Alex!

Here my little Attribution - I like the one with the Saxon Style Ribbon most - its a Steinhauer & Lück piece

[Schwyz]

Rohleder,

I too like the Saxon style ribbon; they seem to be the hardest to find.

I especially like your mother's mini set … very envious.

Thank you very much Gar. Yes it seems they are realy hard to find. Its the first saxon style i found in over 17years. 

Yes the mothers bar is realy special.

Reviving this interesting thread with a recent find that hasn't been posted yet. Pictures are really bad, in hand the obverse of this fine CEJ MM cross for widows/parents looks perfect in its enamel black color.

Hope you like it

Cheers Thomas

Widows cross on DRGM Bow

[Uffz. Rohleder]

My newest one. I can't make out a maker mark since the cross is tightly sewn on. It hasa very nice chocolate like finish.

[John Burchell]

Pictured here is a recent acquisition which I thought I would add for reference.  The known maker is listed in the Jan.1, 2008 post #54 by "Jabnus":  Gbr. D. L. (im Kreis) unbekannt unbekannt (Swords).

That's really cool because I was born in Blankenburg and I know Family Schrader from Rübeland.

here the confirmation letter

Here is the only Hindenburg cross in my collection.

Awarded to Karl Wüllner who after WW1 served in the Ostseedivision in the Finnish liberty war.
I also have his EK2 and medals from Finland with documents and his wehrpass.

 

[Uffz. Rohleder]

A nice single button hole. 

[Trajan]

Reviving this thread as I have always been interested but have not collected these ones. BUT, I have just been offered a ribbon-less crossed swords 39 RV Pforzheim - what is the significance of these numbers?

[Trajan]

A quick internet search suggests RV Pforzheim were the most common maker - is that correct?

[JohanH]

How rare are the Hindenburg crosses awarded to finns?

Here is a pic of one awarded to Ivar Kauranen, the stamp says "Deutscher gesandt… in Helsingfors". 

Can anyone read the signature?

[Utgardloki]

That should be Wipert von Blücher, who was ambassador to Finland 1935-1944

PS: Just found a proof:

[graham]

[Alex K]

Does anyone know the maker BTW?
