EK2 Ring Marked#4 ?? What Maker??

[Kilroy Was Here]

Hi, well I hope what I have learned reading and looking at threads here has worked well. I just bought this for $99.95. It has a magnetic center, and is 3 piece construction.

It looked like a good one to me, so I went for it, before posting here for opinions.

2 questions for the members who know these crosses....

Is it a good one?

And what maker is #4?

These are the only pics I have until it arrives. I hope they are sufficient.

Thanks in advance...
Regards, Steve

Hi, Steve !

Good price for that one. Especially with a long ribbon !

It is from the maker 'Steinhauer and Lueck'.
(Not sure of the correct spelling !)







Regards, Steve.

What is special about the long ribbon?

I guess you think it is a good one then? Is there a website or a link to look up the makers of these crosses?

I wanted a little more salty looking one, but this one is OK........if it is a real one!@!!

Regards

Holy Sh@t !!! I had no idea there were so many medal and badge makers!!

Thanks for posting this info, I will print it out I think, it is very good to have handy.

Thanks again Steve

[Kilroy Was Here]

Whats the deal with the long and short ribbons, any one know??

[militarymania]

usually ribbons are issues in about 11.5 inch lengths,,this way you have a section for your medal,and you can cut one or more,depending on how many jackets one has,to put a section through the second button hole,as per regulations,,,

[Woolgar]

A nice S&L Steve. Be sure to show some more pics when it arrives

Ahh, OK, thanks for this info. Maybe this one was not issued then? it looks very unworn, and the ribbon is long still.
