WW1 German Honour Cross with Swords. By Lauer

The Honour cross or Hindenburg Cross was issued in vast numbers but with numerous different variants and makers, it makes it an interesting and low budget collectable. It was instituted in the July 1934 by Paul von Hindenburg himself, and by government order, it replaced every other veteran’s medal issued. This medal is with crossed swords, issued only to combatants who fought during WW1.
This one is marked with L over NBG for Christian Lauer of Numberg and It is in very good original condition, retaining most of its bronze finish but a little dirty on the back; it comes on a piece of original ribbon.
