WW1 German Honour Cross with Swords. Good Maker
Probably one of the most overlooked and under rated of all German medals. the Honour cross or Hindenburg Cross was issued in vast number but with numerous different variants and makers, it makes it an interesting and low budget collectable. It was instituted in the July 1934 by Paul von Hindenburg himself, and by government order, it replaced every other veteran’s medal issued. This medal is with cross swords, issued only to combatants who fought during WW1.
This one is marked with W.R Werner Redo of Saarlautern, mid-west Germany. Maker to the German court and apart from the honour cross, they made Eastern front medals and some infantry battle badges.
It comes in excellent original condition, retaining all of its bronze finish. it comes on a good length of original ribbon.
