Naval Iron Cross First Class 1939 with Brass Core
SOLD!We may have more in stock and just not yet listed. Click here to send us a message and let us know what you're looking to buy.Here’s a great example of a non-magnetic brass core vaulted Iron Cross 1st Class. These brass core Iron Crosses were typically issued to the Kriegsmarine (navy) because they weren’t susceptible to rusting. On the front we see what is typical with these brass core crosses, which is wear to the raised areas (swastika and 1939 date). Otherwise the black paint coverage is about 90% overall.
