MAKER? Unmarked Eisernes Kreuz Classe 2 EKII

[MilitariaMatt]

Hi all. Is it possible to discern the maker of unmarked pieces? Would love more info on mine please and thank you.

Edit: photos may be sideways- I took vertically and posted and they were sideways; shifted them 90degrees and they still are sideways :S

Otto Schickle?

Otto Schickle?

Pardon my ignorance, but are Schickles one piece construction? This one is a 3 piece as commonly seen.

[BlitzC]

Schickle is just my thinking, as yours is similar like one that I get from emedals, which is said having Schickle characters, but I cannot be sure. Here is the photos.

I take Schickle has normal 3 pcs EK, besides one piece. The EK1DNA shows the regular form made by Schickle.

Please forgive me if I am wrong, I am also looking forward to corrections or comments from you and others.

Regards,
BlitzC

I am not really an EK collector, but I see differences in the obverse date.
The frame certainly has some similarities.

Thanks guys! I definitely see some similarities. Thanks for the info as I'm still learning every little bit of minutia. I've taken a couple better photos.

Hi MilitariaMatt!
I think your cross is a Walter & Henlein, see my cross to compare with.

First, your cross then my cross.

Best regards

Hi BlitzC!
Your cross does not look like a Otto Schickle IMO, but it may be a Alois Rettenmaier, I think I can see their typical die flow on 3 o'clock arm, which I have pointed out in the pictures below.

Best regards
