Unmarked Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse - Possible to determine the maker?

[Hoggorm]

Hi,

I have this unmarked Iron Cross. Is it possible to determine its manufacturer? The seller told me it possible was a Zimmerman?

Seller is correct, a good Fritz Zimmermann cross.

Please always post obverse AND reverse pics, right side up.....

Regards

Hi Nick,

Thank you for the very fast reply!

Can I ask how do you know that it is a Fritz Zimmerman cross?

I'm sorry about the pictures! I should have posted a picture of the backside as well... On my computer it is the correct way up, but for some reason it was turned 90 deg when uploading to the forum. I'm away from home at the moment and this was the only good quality picture I could find of the cross on this computer... Sorry!

The chunky beading is a dead giveaway, the reverse date also has a distinct number '3'.

Thank you very much again!
