Thank you William, it's one of my favourites and was allegedly found in the wall cavity of an SS officer's room in the Channel Islands although I bought the cased medal itself and paid no premium for the story.William Kramer wrote: that is a very beautiful cross you have there
I've always felt the KVK was an under-rated award and these early quality, tombak crosses are often still in great condition.

Hi Ian,
Very nice collection of crosses!
I believe these and drivers badges (reason for this one is no swastika I suspect) are often overlooked by many collectors both have great designs.
Its' nice to see the early 'orange' ribbon on one.
Cheers
Pete
