CLOSE COMBAT CLASP

Thanks for the info Evans, and btw, could you please Konig take pic of the back of the CCC in bronze cloth one, so it can be compared with the silver one?

 

Hello Korbus,

Where did you get your cloth clasp from? I don't have any scans of the reverse, and all my items, after I photograph, are framed behind glass. I'm fairly certain that it is identical to yours.

Also, Carl is correct. The cloth version in most badges are very rare!

Now that I do have the means to dump garbage--the trash has now been placed by the side of the curb.

Two questions in here:

1. Why aren't any of Fred's pictures of militaria available? I am getting tired of those little boxes with the red x!!!
2. Why are you being so silly? Please, you're grown ups!

 

Fred,

What was the award criteria for a CCC in Gold with Honour?

Although not a collector of Combat awards ,my main interest is Ritterkreuztrager,DKiG and CCC in Gold winners and i have corresponded with many of these men.Many of the Infanterie RKT who also won the CCC in Gold consider the combat clasp to be an award of similar if not more importance because of the 50 days plus it took to win the award,but i have never heard of one with honour.

CCCs in cloth never existed. These are fantasy items concocted to separate newbies from their cash. The guy behind the "Fred Konig" ID is still very active on eBay and other sites. Check this out: http://groups.google.com/group/roger-honts-exposed . And to think that he runs a forum "by collectors for collectors", crusading to expose dishonesty in the hobby! Stick to textbook stuff. Don't buy garbage like this.
