1939 Iron Cross 1st Class

IRON CROSS I CLASS 1939

The first class was introduced on the 1st September 1939.
The Iron Cross 1st Class had the same dimensions and identical obverse features as the 2nd Class (44mm by 44mm). It was again constructed of 3 pieces, but the reverse was a solid silvered metal piece with only the attachment mechanism present, usually a “fat bellied” pin and hook.
Usually this pin has a maker mark but also without maker mark is possible!
The solid iron core was fitted between the back piece and the front frame with the manufacturers mark, if any, was stamped on the pin or on the lower arm of the Cross. The soldering was again very neat, with only the slimmest of lines present. The Cross was finished in mat or semi-mat black and the quality of the pieces manufactured was again exceptional.
A privately purchase variation that is often encountered is the “screwback” type that was considerably more secured and preferred by combat troops. Instead of a pin, these Crosses had a protruding threaded tube that was placed through the tunic and held by a round plate and that screwed on from behind. A small pin on the reverse of the upper arm kept the Cross from rotating on its axis. Crosses not made from solid iron also exist, presumably for wear by Kriegsmarine, and initially some manufacturers produced convex Crosses (which were popular in World War I) but this practice was officially discontinued by May 1941.
The Cross was presented in a black leathered box with an imprint of the Iron Cross in silver on the lid. The lining on the inside lid was white satin and the base was velvet, with an impression where the award snugly fit. As with the 2nd Class, a standard award document and the proper Soldbuch and Wehrpass notes and stamps accompanied the Cross.
The Iron Cross 1st Class was worn on the left breast pocket of the tunic at all times. Because of this, most recipients purchased an official copy of the award to keep the original safe and when this was done, many preferred the screw-back variation described above.
