Is this Eisernes Kreuz real or fake? I need help, please!

Hi, this is my 2nd post and I need to know if this Eisernes Kreuz is real or fake? I Already have it, but I want to hv REAL things onto my collection. It´s an EK2, marked "55" (J.E. Hammer & Söhne).

I can take more pics if u need them!

Thx from Argentina!

better pics front and back would be needed mate

Closer photos of the front and back would be very useful. There is a sticky thread at the top of the main Orders and Decorations of the Third Reich forum with some useful tips.

The frame looks a little misshapen and the corners are more rounded than I would expect to see but from the image provided it does look like an original JE Hammer & Sohne cross and in quite good condition too.

Better photos will help make sure.

looks good, please show close ups as already requested

[Adrian]

It is definitely not fake. It is an original EK2.

Thank you for the better photos.
