Naval Issue cloth DKIG

[Anthony T]

Hi all!
I would like to add a naval cloth issue DK in gold to my collection. I was just wondering what the current market value stands on the piece. Are they more scarce opposed to Wehrmacht or Luft issues? Any and all enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Anthony,
They are much more rare (look at the size of the Heer/W-SS and Luftwaffe and who won DKs there as compared to the KM) and you can expect to pay in the $750-900+ region for one (of course condition and who is selling it will dictate the price). Make sure it is on KM backing and not black for Panzer (which is also very rare). Here is my KM example and it came from Gordon Williamson.

Hi Anthony,
Here is an original cloth KM DK for sale and the price is not bad $765.55. The dealer is very good.

I agree with Jody completely. Here's a cloth KM DK that I paid $800 for a couple of years ago.
