Hello

Only my opinion, but I think this could well be a nice, original first pattern bar to the iron cross.

The only other one that is the same as this one that I can find is on page 165 of Gordon Williamsons 'The Iron Cross Of 1939' - the photos at the bottom of that page.

For what it is worth, I do not like it...even the pebbling seems wrong!
