German War Merit Cross with Swords 1939 by Souval

These crosses were producedafter 1945 by the Souval company. It was intended for German veterans to re-buy a cross in case theirs was lost or stolen. These crosses were still worn at veteran meetings, hence the conclusion, that even if it comes from the veteran itself, he might have bought it himself after the war as a second piece to wear. Incredible Souval quality!
