Germany: WWI Hindenburg War Cross for Non-
Combatants, featuring the blackened finish
designated for widows and mothers of soldiers
who died during the Great War.
This mounted single-bar example is particularly
unique due to a mint error and the presence of
an extremely rare maker's mark: "G&L.L.", a
manufacturer yet to be conclusively identified.
Ideal for collectors of WWI, 3rd Reich memorabilia,
or rare mint variants.
The medal was instituted in 1934 by Field Marshal
Paul von Hindenburg, then President of the Third
Reich, to honor all those who served or were
affected by WWI.
A total 8,041,414 of medals were awarded as follows:
for combatants 6,202,883
for non-combatants 1,120,449
for widows 345,132
for parents 372,950
