War merit cross with swords 1st class cased – Kerbach & Oesterhelt, Dresden

War merit cross with swords 1st class cased – Kerbach & Oesterhelt, Dresden. Early war tombac cross with silver plated surface and PkZ mark 62 under the pin. Remains in very good worn condition with hand vaulted shape, hence the marks on the reverse. Very typical alteration done to many KVk1 and Ek1. Comes with matching Kerbach marked case in equally good condition. Very nice fully marked set.
