Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse

[BTR]

Good day.
Please express your opinion on the subject of authenticity.

To me its a fake.

The hardware is wrong, the 3 stamp on a Deumer was at the bottom of the cross below the catch not on the pin.

And the core and the frame?

Have a look at this thread and compare crosses, it will give you the answer

My (small) collection of Deumer EKs

I understand it rather weakly, but as for me, everything is consistent Deumer, and the frame and numbers on the core, except for the stigma.

[Nick Hessens]

The features on this cross do not match Deumer, nor any other known maker. So to answer your question, no, this is not an original EK1.

Regards,
Nick

Thanks for the help!
