'Virtually mint' example of an: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' being a non-maker-marked example as was (I deem) produced by the still unidentified maker (ie. 'Hersteller'): '75'

The truly very attractive piece - which was surely issued but that was simply never mounted - came together with its folded and/or non-confectioned (and approx. 15 cms. long-sized-) ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt'). The cross - which is totally void of any makers'-designation - was with certainty never cleaned and has a very nice and/or attractive age-patina: it retains (most of) its so-called: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or: polished sides) and has a minimally darkened- (ie. somewhat 'blackened'- ie. stained) finish (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross has a very nicely preserved, black-finished (ie. somewhat 'satin-like'- ie. somewhat matted-) core: it is void of any damage nor paint-loss (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece is just a tiny bit dusty and/or stained but was never cleaned nor polished. The cross is (I deem) an evident specimen that was almost certainly produced by the (to date still unidentifed!) maker: 'Hersteller 75'): it has very nice and/or pronounced detail as to be expected for a cross by this desirable maker. The IC was recently found at a German private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive, non-maker-marked 'EK II. Klasse' that is accordingly priced!
