    Does anyone know what class this eagle order is for ?

    Dear Members,

    I was offered these medals , but are more interested in the red box.

    I have two first class order of the German eagle.

    One with swords and one without.

    The inside of the box says with swords, but I cannot upload the photo.

    Does anyone know from the outside and the size of the box, is this for a 1st class order.

    Thanks for all your help and advice.

    Regards Steven.

    Well if the title in the lid says first class it probably is.
    Case looks authentic to me

      3 rd class ?

      Dear Kokstok,

      Thanks for your comment.

      I finally was able to get a partial photo of the inside.

      It looks to be a 3 rd class box ?

      What do you think ?

      Thanks again.

      Regards Steven.

        There was a change is designation i think in 1942/43 former first class became third class or aimething like that. This is all from the top of my head because I not able to check it in my books.
        I can check it tomorrow.

              This is the perpetual problem, mixing Stufe with Klasse. Steven, the case is as labelled inside the lid a III.Klasse of the 1943 regulations. Before that date it was synonymous with the 1.Stufe.

              cheers

                Dear Peter, Marisca,

                Here is the actual medal I have, will this bx fit this medal, I do not believe so ?

                I think this box is for the 3rd class round medal with swords ?

                Let me know what you think.

                Regards Steven.

                        The one with the swords is the correct one for this case.

                            Is this case I found on line the same as the one offered to me ?

                              Steven, both cases shown by you will the 50mm neckcross also shown by you. The case for the medals is similar in size to the 45mm V.Klasse.

                              cheers
                              Peter
