mussert kruis
Zijn er hier bezitters van een mussert kruis? Kunnen jullie daarvan foto's posten, en wat is de prijs ongeveer voor zo een kruis? Ik zou zeer graag één in mijn collectie krijgen.

Here is a little info I found in my reference books.
Littlejohn mentions Mussert Cross in volume 2 of his Orders, Decorations, Medals and Badges of the Third Reich (1973)
Quote:
In the spring of 1942, Anton Mussert instituted a bravery decoration for Dutch volunteers serving with the German forces on the Russian front. This decoration, known as the Mussert Cross, was not issued however. Mussert had not obtained Hitler's permission before instituting this award, and the Fuhrer therefore forbade its use.
Anton Mussert founded Dutch NSB (national socialist movement) in 1931, was executed in 1946.
Littlejohn also explains that the ribbon is Dutch colors and the cross was in one class only and that "this item has been faked in considerable quantities since the war" (yeah, what else is new? )
Littlejohn briefly mentions this award again in volume 2 of his Foreign Legions of the Third Reich (1981)
Quote:
Mussert, on his own initiative, instituted a special decoration, the so-called "Mussert Cross", for bravery in the [Dutch Volunteer] Legion, but Hitler would not permit its distribution on the grounds that the Dutch volunteers were eligible for all German war decorations and war badges.
