Bundesrepublik 1957 German Cross in Gold

[Georg of Ohio]

I normally collect Imperial stuff and know very little about this era , but when I saw this medal at an estate auction I just like the look. What do you guys think of this 1957 revised Gold Cross, I have read some where that these medals should have 4 rivets on the back, but this one only have two.

Hello

I'd like to see some closer, better, sharper full face on photos, but it looks from what I make out to have the red enamelled ring under the gold wreath, and standard rear set up. So from what I can make out this looks like a decent quality new form DK, probably from the mid to late 1960's and made by Steinhauer und Luck.
