German WWII 1939 Iron Cross 2nd Class with Ribbon

This is an original German WWII 1939 Iron Cross 2nd Class with ribbon, a cornerstone award of the Wehrmacht decoration system instituted at the outbreak of the Second World War. The Iron Cross 2nd Class was awarded for acts of bravery in combat or exceptional leadership in the field, and remains one of the most widely collected and recognized German military medals from the era.

This example features crisp beaded borders and a sharply detailed German ensign at the center, both indicative of quality wartime manufacture. The overall finish exhibits a mellowed patina honest to age, with consistent aging across both the metal surfaces and the accompanying ribbon. The ribbon itself retains good color and structure, appropriate for period wear, and is correctly mounted. This Iron Cross represents an authentic and historically significant WWII-era German military award, well suited for collectors of German decorations and medals.
