Case for the Iron Cross 1st Class (Verleihungsetui zum Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse). On 1 September 1939 Hitler reinstituted the Iron Cross (First time in 1813). The first class medal was for award to personnel who performed three to five acts of bravery in combat, and had already been awarded the Iron Cross second class. The case is in very good condition with minimal traces of usage. Hard to find original Iron Cross Box!
