Schalburg Cross

Looks like the Cross of Merit of the Schalburg Corps, or Schalburg Cross (Denmark).
This cross is an Officers version.

Jens,

Interesting. Could you elaborate why they are fake ?
Thanks.

Both are poor casting with wrong pins. The pin in the cross in post one is pure fantasy. The same is the color in the center of the crosses.Center should be white with lettering in as post 6 or 7. The swastiska is also to thin with poor detailing.

They only exist as original as in post 6 and 7 with 7 as the most rare and socallled "officer-type". This one is in enamel.
These are american fakes from the 70-80ties.
