paul wood Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 This is the Soldier's Cross of the Virtuti Militari 1831 or 5th class, instituted 31 December 1831, between 1831-35 approximately 100,000 were issued. I assume that the mark on the reverse is an unsightly test mark rather than a die flaw. Not common but not paticularly rare. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
