Hi
I am looking to buy this EK1 Spange. I cannot see any issues but would welcome any feedback in case I am missing something. Thank you, nic.

From these small photos, it appears to be an unmarked version of this one.

1939 Spange zum Eisernen Kreuzes 1er Klasse 1914, L/11, Wilhelm Deumer
Searching for anything relating to, Anton Boos, 934 Stamm. Kp. Pz. Erz. Abt. 7, 3 Kompanie, Panzer-Regiment 2, 16th Panzer-Division (My father)
Hmmm, I have a pair of EK1 Deumer spanges and the dates look different to be honest. Could be die wear leading to the flaws in the '9' I suppose.
Am not particularly liking the curve on the top of the "3" either. On Glenn's examples, it is flat and nearly touching the top rim.

Larger photos would help immensely.

Thank you for all the feedback. I have requested additional photos.
Some more photos but mainly of the reverse!
Still not the greatest pics, but I would give it the nod too now. The oddities visible on the 1st set seem to have just been tricks of the lighting. This spange looks fine.

The rear set up is classic Deumer, right down to the tool mark on the pin, a very nice piece.

The Deumer 'beard' to the beak also confirms it as original IMO.
