EK2 Juncker, possible purchase!

[Farradin]

Hello mates!

I have the opportunity to buy a lot of awards and amongst them i saw something special, an Ek2 juncker! I'm pretty sure its a "full juncker" but please let me know what you think!

But if I want the cross, i'll have to buy the whole lot... I don't know if it's worth it!

Hello Anton,

Yes, you are correct, it's a Juncker. Well spotted!

Personally, I really don't understand all the hype about Juncker crosses, they are nothing special in my eyes.
I wouldn't buy the entire group just to get my hands on the one cross (especially since you already have one!), but that's just me.

Regards - Danny


EDIT:
Wait, there's something odd here...
The two EK2's in the first picture (the group shot) are not the same two crosses in the second photograph. One of them in the group shot looks to be a '15' or a '120' (extra large jump ring).

Hi, danny.

I got 2 of 'em!

Hmm, i don't know theres something about them. I like the details of the hump and the brass loop (is it brass?)...

Depends on how much the group will go for. Right now the price is around 250€ which is almost a bargain...

[Danny70]

If you got the whole lot for €250, then yes, jump on it!!

[Farradin]

Trust me, I will!

Good luck Anton, all look good and the Juncker is a real sweetner !

I agree with Danny, Juncker crosses are over rated. The only Juncker crosses I get excited about are the early hand frosted examples. Otherwise they're very ordinary. There are far better designs out there IMO.
Mind you, an EK collector should have every variant in their collection, I just wish the price wasn't so over inflated.
