WWII IRON CROSS 2nd CLASS WITH ‘Battle damage’

A totally uncleaned, untouched and original Iron Cross second class, with what I was told ‘battle damage’! It’s more likely to be shrapnel damage as apparently it was looted from a destroyed house by a soldier in the Engineers. Who can say? Anyway, cross is black with patina and has a length of original ribbon. I cannot see any maker mark on the suspension ring, which is also a bit twisted. The damage is slight but has dented the silver frame area in the top arm on the right hand side. Also taken a small nick out of the top edge. Quite interesting really. Has a magnetic center and 100% of the original paint. Nice looking cross. (Post free in the U.K.)
