Here is my certificate.

176 !!!

A FIRST! Upper left charges RM .60 for a second copy (!!!) of this award document for a Hindenburg Cross for Frontfighters

made out to Glass maker Heinrich Becker in Goslar in Goslar on 11 February 1936 (!) and signed with a SPECTACULARLY unreadable scribbled autograph of the Lord Mayor (Oberb?rgermeister) of Goslar.

That being an important military garrison town, I expect whoever the Lord Mayor was at this time was probably a Nazi Bigwig of some political status.

Nice city stamp.
