Knights cross case

[Onkelz]

Hi guys,

i´ve got this knights cross case.
Because i want to sell it i showed it at german forum MFF. One user said it should be 57 version, but i don´t think so.
What do you think?

Greetings,
Manuel

Both case and ribbon look OK to me, but some more pictures (in daylight) would be helpful.

[Viriathus]

I agree with Ludwig, they look good but better pictures are needed for the case.

I've never seen a black painted push button on an original case. Could be an early post war example.

Original pre 45 case & ribbon IMO. Tom

The former owner was a Hauptscharführer, who died 1944 at eastern front. I hve got it from the daughter of the soldier, i don´t think she bought an early postwar case.

How did you get it? As a gift or did you buy it?

I write you by PM

From what I can see the case is a pre May 1945 issue.
