Two-piece construction, bronze with a gilt and enamelled centrepiece, inscribed "TAPPER OG TRO" on the reverse, 43.3 mm, original ribbon with bronze pinback hanger, intact enamels, extremely fine. Footnote: The order was originally designated for Norwegian front fighters, until Germany decided that only German medals were to be worn, in this case, the Iron Cross.
