This high-quality privately purchased 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class is a remarkable piece of military history. The cross is of the low vault variety and is made of .850 silver, as indicated on the reverse. The paint on the obverse is in excellent condition and would rate at 100%. The beading on the frame is also outstanding and shows high definition. The patina is consistent with high-content silver, and the cross is magnetic.

The reverse of the Iron Cross features a fine pin, which shows some indentation indicating it was worn and pressed against a tunic. The catch is also well made, adding to the overall quality of this piece. Although there is no manufacturer hallmarking, the fine craftsmanship is evident in every detail.

The interior of the case has a white silk lining on the upper lid and a rich purple velvet base. The Iron Cross fits snugly in the case, which closes perfectly with a working closure device.
