The neat - albeit surey issued- and/or moderately worn - 'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse' (or: Iron Cross 1st class) is a typical non-vaulted- (ie. non-converse-shaped) example that has never been cleaned nor polished. It retains an attractive age-patina and/or nice, pronounced detail as to be expected for an IC by this particular maker. This example - which is as stated above a typical non-maker-marked specimen - was - I deem - produced by the desirable Austrian maker: 'Rudolf Souval' as was based in the town of Wien (ie. Vienna) (ie. 'Hersteller 98') and comes naturally firmly mounted onto its original- (and naturally unaltered and/or fully functional) flute-shaped pin and/or typical catch (-set-up). The cross - which is a magnetic example as more often found - shows a neatly 'blackened'- and/or fairly 'satin-like' inner-core that is shows some (minimal) paint-damage (within the swastika-area and '1939'-date as can be seen on the pictures): it has, however, clearly been issued and/or moderately worn and is still a bit stained and/or dirty (it was never cleaned though and retains a fair bit of its 'off-factory'-applied polished sides ie. 'hochpolierte Kanten'). I deem that I have priced this attractive, 'Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse' by the 'Souval'-company according to its moderately used and/or totally untouched condition!
