Eisernes Kreuz 1st Klasse – Real or Fake?

[Adrian]

Is this not the same variant?

It looks exactly the same variant! I've never seen this before on an S&L EK1. Thank you for posting it János.

Here is an edited pic that Jonas posted:

Thanks János for these pictures.

I send it to the seller and she could confirm that the backside was identical with your picture.

So I guess the mystery is solved then...

Then my final question, what is this cross + case worth?

Value is always subjective and depends on the individual but at a rough guide I suggest $400-$500.

[Woolgar]

It certainly looks like it Hans

The catch is the same type as on the Minesweeper I posted recently.

bah.. I 'm not 100% convinced because these pics are better yes but details are not clear..
seems that this pin shape was used on late war crosses but just seen on m.m 26 and L15 as I can remember.
