    Hello!
    I'm new here, so excuse me if something wrong, but...

    Any chance to define to who this merit cross was issued? In other side I see number

    Hi and welcome to the forum! If by number you mean a number on the back of the medal it´s only the makers mark ( a number the maker put there to identify it as their made product ). And that medal was given to many many thousands of vets so the answer is No . Unless you dont have the papers to go with it, it´s impossible to know who it belonged to. Sorry.

      Just curious, did you also get the EKII that goes with the second ribbon?

        mm - bad
        Unfortunately I have only what in picture - no papers.
        That other (as You say EKII) also was in shelf many years ago, but can't find it anymore

              I was going to say that it looks like my 62. That would make it Kerbach & Österhelt. A very nice example too.

                  There may be a list but it is impossible to determine which recipient got a particular cross. At any rate, some information can be found here:

                  Are you trying to associate a particular KNOWN person with this cross or are you just curious?

                    Medals were on shelf for some reason:
                    1) somebody from family just found them
                    2) someone form family got them

                    If first - no interest to keep that thing in home.
                    If second - can't change history , but need to know.
                    Unfortunately those family members who maybe know something already gone.
