ArHo Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Good afternoon, just out of curiosity I was wondering if there are any pictures out there that show "Prinzengröße" or reduced 1870 iron crosses worn by the men who won them. I "developed" this question while combing through the forum and reading about these privately purchased miniatures. So, if they are out there I would love to hear / see them. Best!

Metallica Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Hi ArHo, I've never thought about it, but now after quickly going through my collection: I can't find one from 1870! @Andreas, thank you for sharing your picture! Out of my head I just thought of Wilhelm I of Prussia with his 1813 Iron Cross Prinzengroeße. Kind regards, Leonard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArHo Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 @dedehansen and @Metallica wow, thank you both für your input, very interesting! I love them both and your answers tell me that I was right to assume these pictures are not easily found. In my collection I have only one possible piece that I would like to discuss with you: I consider this Ek21870 "small" compared to the buttons. What is your opinion? Best!
