Knights Cross 1957
In 1957 all grades of the Knights Cross were included in the laws which allowed veterans to once again wear war time decorations. The Knights Cross, now devoid of all Nazi symbols had a spray of Oak Leaves taking the place of the swastika but remained otherwise of identical design. In most cases, the rim lacks the mat silver finish, and though some of the firms that manufactured the original crosses also made the new Knights Crosses they are generally of lower quality.
Three peice Construction with two silver frames and a metal magnetic metal (Iron) core. Oakleaf cluster to the front center with the date "1939" below. Un-marked ribbon ring intact and the cross comes with an 1957 type White, red and black ribbon. The cross is in good condition with virtually all black paint intact to the Iron core and most of the Bright silver left to the cross edges.
Nice exampel!!
