WW2 German Iron Cross 2nd Class. MM52, Gottleib and Wagner.

This example has close to 100% of its factory finish to the front and back of the iron center. The tight two piece frame has some dark patina, beading is sharp. The ring has a very clear 52 number stamp indicating production by the G&W firm.This has all the appearance of being very ''sleepy'' with the mat patina to the core, frame and even the longer than usual period ribbon. Im going to leave it up to the new owner if they wish to clean it up.
