Price Check - Help Needed

[John F.]

Help,

Can someone please tell me the price range for an Austrian Order of the Iron Crown 3rd class (without swords)? I am unable to take a picture of the actual medal I am considering buying but I can tell you that it is in great shape with no chips to the enamel. I believe it has a 1940's era replacement ribbon.

Thanks!
John

Sorry for the grainy picture. It took me 3 or 4 tries to get one even this good.

It matters greatly if there this asterisk is present. This denotes that it is a wartime version made of gilded bronze. The others are gold. The presence or absence of the wreath makes a difference, too. The wreath was a wartime decoration. These weren’t awarded that often before WWI, were during the war. Obviously the ones from an earlier era are more valuable.
