Iron Cross 2nd class w/ other medals....

Hey Guys,
I ran across a bunch of WWII German items. I'm in no way as experienced as you guys here and I figured you guys could be a wealth of information.
<P> The pictures have all the information that is needed and if you need more pictures to authenticate it, please let me know and I will take them. There is the matching paperwork for these items as well. I know what some of these items are worth regularly... but add in the paperwork and I have NO CLUE as to what this is worth. How much is this grouping worth?</P>

<P> I am new to this forum and photobucket so the pictures are mixed up. I am not sure how to arrange them in an organized manner. If anyone knows how to reorganize them on photobucket, that would help too! </P>
<P>Any help would be great as I try to collect WWII Aviator wings and not really German items. So I have no idea what this is worth with the paper. Can anyone help? Thanks!</P>

The KVKs and EK2 look ok from the pics, the KVK2 has an EK ribbon with it though and both classes have lost their finish. I can't speak for many of the items but at first glance and with the pics provided there seems to be some good stuff there.
If it helps, take some good front and back pics of the crosses and email them to me and I will post them for you.
Take a look through the rest of the forum and post the other items in the appropriate places to get the most opinions on your items.

Hello Adrain, Thanks for the info. I will try and send you an email tonight with the pictures. I will also post the items on the other forums as well since I have edged weapons and such. Like I said, I don't really collect german items (although this grouping has peaked my interest and I may start collecting German things as well). I do appreciate your help though!

Dave,

I like all of what I see there. Congratulations!
I certainly wish I could turn up a crate like yours.
The Luger is the crowning glory though

All the best,
Jay

P.S. Hope you get an accurate value sorted out. Certainly is tough to put the correct amount of $'s on that little lot!

Hi Dave. Very nice collection! It's a really nice start to collect german awards. Are You sure that KVK w/o swords was originally in that box? There is a EK II ribbon underneath. I'm not sure if they were presented in boxes, rather in envelopes like the WMM You have. If there is no maker mark on the EK II You could post the better pics just to learn more about it. Well I would All the best !!!!!!!!!

Well, I took it to a dealer just to see what he thought. He said he would pay $1650 USD.... I know the Red Cross enlisted hewer is worth at least $700. I'm pretty sure the other stuff with the paper work is worth more... I don't know, it kinda bummed me out a little bit. I didn't take the Luger though. I dunno. I am just trying to find out a decent price for the whole thing except the luger. I had a friend who collects lugers value it and it seemed about right. I dunno... I'm just bummed out I guess.
