Prussia - Iron Cross 2nd Class with Jubilee Oak Leave Cluster


Description

Iron Cross 2nd class, 1870. Iron core with silver frame. Unfortunately, the frame opened in the area of the upper cross arm and is slightly warped. On original ribbon, apparently taken from a medal bar. The well-preserved oak leave cluster is attached by two splints onto the ribbon.

Honest and worn piece.

The Iron Cross was usually a military decoration only but awarded to civilians for performing military functions in a few instances.
