Hanseatic Cross - Hamburg

The Hanseatic Cross award was established in 1915 by the three German Hanseatic league city-states of Bremen, Hamburg and Lübeck. It was awarded for merit or bravery in war, and was the league’s equivalent of the Prussian Iron Cross.

This example of the Hamburg version of the award is die struck and finished in red enamel and silver plate, and is supplied complete with a length of the correct ribbon.
