War Merit Cross

Now it looks like a completely different cross. What does it look like now John, the first pics or the latter?

the latter, i cleaned the cross when i got it, just cleaned it, never polished it, it was just shiny, but after a couple of days it looks like the pictures i posted yesterday

Ok John, amazing how cleaning a medal changes the apperance so much to give the impression of it not being original!

Yes , Adrian
