As on request of Johannes Post I am posting this Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross.
Recipiant Hauptmann Klüser!!
This Cross is a textbook Klein & Quenzer example. Silver frame shows uniform dark age patina with the unique Klein & Quenzer thicker ribbon loop shaped much like a doughnut. Reverse upper frame is stamped, '800" with the suspension loop also marked "800" as well as the maker's mark, "65". Matte black finish on the Iron center shows virtually no age or wear to either obverse or reverse thanks to the removal of the upper tunic button which precluded wear to the reverse Cross.
Sincerely kevin
