Austrian Order of the Iron Crown Second Class War Decoration

Austrian Order of the Iron Crown – Second Class War Decoration

An impressive full-size collector recreation of the Austrian Order of the Iron Crown, Second Class with War Decoration, featuring one of the most elaborate forms of this historic Imperial insignia.

The badge combines the crowned double-headed eagle, dark blue “F” shield, jeweled Iron Crown, and monumental crown suspension with the distinctive green laurel wreath of the Kriegsdekoration.

Distinctive War Decoration

The green enamel-style laurel wreath encircling the eagle immediately distinguishes this badge from the standard Second Class version. The additional foliage creates greater visual depth and gives the insignia a particularly rich Imperial appearance.

Solid Brass Body

The insignia is constructed from solid brass rather than zinc alloy, with an antique gold-tone finish and multicolored enamel-style details. The substantial construction makes it especially suitable for high-quality collection and display.

The reverse features the historic 1815 shield, while the complete badge is suspended from the traditional golden-yellow ceremonial neck ribbon with royal-blue borders.
