    The EK looks ok from this distance but much closer pics are required please. Is there a maker mark on the ring?

    I think it looks like the No. "27"Anton Schenkl's Nachf. Wien. But this one is unmarked.

    I can't tell anything from that distance. There's no chance to tell if this is an original or fake from photos where you can't see any details.
    Best Regards,

    The 1's looks like a #27, but much better pics are needed. If you can't get that, I would pass.. A #27 is not rare, so it's not worth to take the chance..
