Germany. A Mint Knight's Cross Of The Iron Cross, Steinhauer & Lück, Micro 800 Auction Service Records and Discharge PapersOffered is an outstanding example of the Micro 800 version, but Steinhauer & Lck. Featuring a frosted silver frame that is marked with a micro 800 centrally on the edge of the upper arm, the cross exhibits the manufacturing characteristics and die flaws of a textbook Type A Knights Cross. Known among collectors as the Micro 800 version, this cross consists of die flaws on the ribs of the cross that appear to be forming little bridges across the ribs.
