I stopped at a coin shop today that occasionally gets militaria. I'm not a cross collector per se but do have a half dozen that I include in shadow boxes. Hope it's a real vintage piece!

    I like it. L/11 is Wilhelm Deumer.

    Thanks Mr Jerry. 

    Always a risk when buying outside my normal knowledge base. First thing I did when I got home with it was do a magnet test. It passed.
