Stijn David Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Hello, Here is iron cross 2 nd. class that was awarded but never worn as such. It still coms in its original paper packet wich is maker marked " Ordensfabrik Fritz Zimmermann - Stuttgart " .The cross on its own is not maker marked, the core is still in excellent shape. The silver frame is patinated over time. The ribbon is still full lenght and has the orange colour more then red.Cordial greetings, enjoy + post your brothers or sisters please as this baby is feeling lonely lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Baker Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Stijn,Very nice set, and you are correct, you don't see these very often. I love these crosses that have the core paint intact. I also really like the date on that packet. Nice!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stijn David Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hello, Thank you for showing the sister (or is it brother) from my packet => now my piece does now that he is not alone any more I have however a question as this thread did raise a question for me. Are the Zimmermann company of Stuttgart (LDO nr. 6) the same as the Zimmermann company of Pforzheim (LDO nr. 20) ? Are they related etc ... etc ...

Bill Garvy Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I believe they are different manufacturers that happen to have the same last name. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
