Iron Cross Second Class – Klein & Quenzer (65)
SOLD!Iron Cross Second Class EKII, 1939 (Eisernes Kreuz II Klasse) with “65” stamped into the ring, which signifies the maker, “Klein & Quenzer”. This Iron Cross may look a little rough, but a cross like this tells a story all its own. As any collector knows, to clean or restore a piece such as this one would destroy its history and value. Aside from some modest petina, and very slight surface color, the overall black finish is still about 95% on both sides, with the trademark “veins” running through random sections. A very nice cross indeed!

On the reverse, the coke bottle pin is standard for this maker, and the clasp is strong and firm, with the Wilhelm Deumer L/11 mark stamped clearly beneath it.

Heer Officers Service Dress Tunic & Visor
SOLD!This beautifully preserved German WW2 tunic and visor cap set is from a Heer Infanterie Hauptmann (Captain) of the Reserve. Aside from a few minor moth holes, most notably under the armpits and out of direct sight, this set is immaculate! The matching visor cap sports a more rare bullion kokarde and wreath, but was not found with the typical officer chin cord. This may very well have been removed by the officer because he preferred the look without it.

Buttons appear to have been repositioned as previous button holes have been sewn closed (by a very skilled tailor as they are barely visible).

SOLD!This is a superb example of a Luftwaffe EM/NCO buckle & correct brown leather belt. The belt buckle is marked on the leather tab, “F. W. Assmann & Söhne”, while the belt has the marking, “B. A.
