A Spanish Cross for Military Constancy; Non-Commissioned Officers
Pensioner’s Cross : Bronze gilt with red, blue, yellow and white enamels, 41 mm x 55.5 mm inclusive of its crown suspension, original ribbon with pinback, intact enamels, contact marks evident on the reverse, near extremely fine. The Cross was instituted on December 26, 1958, for long and irreproachable service by non-commissioned officers. The yellow bands on the arms of the cross distinguish this as a cross for a retired N.C.O. rather than one still on active service. This award would have been for twenty-five years’ service.
