Finland WWII Order of the Cross of Liberty Mourning Cross with Swords 1939 for the Winter War

FINLAND: Order of the Cross of Liberty, Cross of 
Mourning with Swords, 1939. 
A posthumous award to those who were killed 
during active military service. The Cross was 
presented to the closest relative of a soldier killed 
in action.
The Order was established in 1918 during the 
Independence War of Finland. 
The number  "1939" shows the year of the award. 
The Order of the Cross of Liberty is a premier 
Order of Finland and it was awarded (until 1960)
for merit during war time active service. 
This example was issued during the Winter War 
of 1939 against the Soviet Union. 
As the war only lasted from 30 Nov. 1939 until 
13 March 1940, the 1939 Crosses are quite rare.
