What do you guys think about this? When the cross was made?

Late production 'D' frame (with unmagnetic core) from 1980 onwards.... This one looks pretty good in quality compared to other examples, if the price is right then go for it!
Regards
maxrsx, nothing wrong with this one ! an original St u L made RK in silver (800 marked both RK & O/S) albeit a late made "D" frame version, these were made between 1979-around 2005, the so called "shot blasted" framed RK's, still a legitimate 57er RK....The one shown has soldered joints that indicate to me being made in the mid1990's.
St u L have made RK's with non magnetic cores since around the mid 1970's.
These are the type some collectors hate due to their build quality which can range from good to bad !
Do not forget, these are the types veterans from the DDR would of bought upon reunification.
I have several of these crosses, I like them ! They range from £80-£200 depending on silver content (none, 800 or 925) and accessories (box, Oaks/Oaks & Swords etc).
Here a couple of shots of one of my favourites a mid/late 80's made example..........
Prost ! Steve.
Thank you for help.
