RARE WW1 CASED GERMAN IRON CROSS 1ST CLASS – DEUMER – ORIGINAL VAULTED – This is a Early war unmarked three piece Deumer made cross with copper coated magnetic core and vaulted appearance. Remains in slightly worn condition with some of the black lacquer on the core worn down, nicely exposing the copper finish on the beading. Appealing cross with a good’has been there’ look. This cased cross also came directly out of an estate in Germany, it has never been in a collection until it came to mine several years ago. I never displayed this cross in its case, I always kept it closed and in a sealed plastic container to try to limit the rate of degradation. That may seem strange to some people and thats ok, its just what I did because its such a nice cross that has withstood the test of time. Maker: Wilhelm Deumer, Lüdenscheid. Weight: 15.21 Grams.
