WW2 GERMAN CROSS IN GOLD CLOTH VERSION, ARMY WITH CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY
(Deutsches Kreuz in Gold, Stoffausführung). A cloth version of the German Cross in Gold issued to Heer (Army) personnel, consisting of a double-overlaid eight-pointed starburst pattern, with a field-grey wool base overlaid by machine-embroidered slate-grey threading, trimmed with machine-embroidered silver aluminum wire rays, with a central white cloth disc overlaid by a black mobile swastika executed in grey threading and trimmed with silver aluminum wire, set within a circular gilt laurel leaf wreath, the latter wrapped in ribbon and joined together at the bottom by a plaque bearing a date of “1941”, bordered on both the inner and outer edges by red threaded piping with an additional exterior silver aluminum wire fringe.
The previous owner purchased this cross in 2016 from a dealer in Berlin for 400 Euro (approx $600), that was ten years ago and as we know prices have risen dramatically since then, coupled with the fact that these cannot be imported into Australia makes this cross a good buy.
