Paul R Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 That is something we do not see. Does anyone know how many Iron Cross Second Classes were awarded for this war?
Alex K Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Really, really nice bit of kit, do you own it? if you do then I am genuinely envious, would look nice in my collection of EK's regards Alex K
Ralph A Posted January 27, 2013 Author Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) It's the only 1813 Iron Cross in my collection. I'm still looking for a full-sized one w/o a cracked core! Some day... The bit of ribbon behind is supposedly a period-piece, too, but that's hard to quantify. According to one source: approx. 16,900 2nd class, 600 1st class awarded for actions in the Napoleonic Wars.

gregM Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 That is a vary rare piece. Thanks for showing it,
