GERMAN POST WWII KNIGHTS CROSS, CASED.

A recognised 'museum quality' reproduction by Stienhuer & Luck, type 'C'. although with no written authenticity this award is thought to be a replacement for Willi Hammrich, replaced for him by his family in the 1980s. unmarked loop with 800 mark on the top if the frame, reverse side. Obvious, genuine age and patina to medal and box.
Reproduction Knights Crosses carry a true value within their own realm. Collectors realised some years ago that a war time Knights Cross was out of reach to many so the value of QUALITY reproductions formed their own unique market. This example is within that bracket, an Ideal display item.
