5th Don Cossack Rgt Cross

Sadly de- and then re-Nazified but one of the few originals. I think this is only the 2nd example I have seen with the swastika removed. Was found sitting on a dealer's site here in the UK for a reasonable price.

I think this is one of the postwar copies made. But your are right, not seen very often

Hi Patrick,
a nice and IMO good exemplar.

The weight is around 9-10 grams, the pin is magnetic ?

Thanks for sharing and congrats.

[Thomas E Hansen]

Sorry Patrick. My mistake.

[Patrick W]

Thanks Guys- Tom, the fakes are close but they haven't been able to replicate the pin crimping system found on the real deal like this one

A rare score. Congrats !
