I like the look of the cross even though the obverse pics are not very good. The hinge, pin, catch and maker mark all look good to me.
I also like the case but wait for more replies because I am not sure about the emblem on the lid of the case. It may be fine but I am more used to seeing other cross emblems and not this style.
best regards

War Service Cross in first class without swords. Numbering or marking "50" as shown corresponds to Leistungs Gemeinschaft Deutscher Ordenshersteller (LDO) L/50 Karl Gschiermeister-Wien. From Buntmetall. From Militaria Berlin.
But seeing as the one you have is only marked "50" then it falls under the Reichszeugmeisterrei (RZM) for short maker is Richard Sieper & Sohn, Ludenscheid.
The box I have seen before but I have not got one in my collection as most without swords would have the inner filled in and usually in silver on the black paper covering.

The box has the KVK 'Maltese Cross' logo filled in.

The 50 being RZM related is utter nonsense ccc
The 50 marked cross is perfectly ok!
