Hey Marcel

There was a thread about another Zimmerman a day or two ago.

Your one looks a lot better than the one in this thread though, it looks almost identical to the example I posted images of in here;

Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse, doubt about marking.

Hi jamie7d7,

Do you mean by "looks a lot better" that this iron cross original is?

Marcel

Well the hardware and the font of the "20" certainly look like a Zimmerman.

However, for a definitive answer, perhaps wait for someone with more knowledge/experience than I.

You couldn't be more right Jamie. The hardware and details match the EK1 you posted in the other thread. So as stated by Nick, a nice original one.
