A minty EK1 in wear.....

I would like to put these crosses exactly in the same position and to make a pic so it could be possible to compare pin and corners.

I think the Mayer hinge is too wide to be the one in the photo? I don't have an Orth to compare but I do have a W&L and this maker is still a possibility I think. The cross looks quite sharp, much like a W&L, does anyone have or can anyone post a pic of a mint Orth cross?

Hope you don`t mind me posting this, it`s a photo from my collection showing the famous
Wilhelm Eggemann being awarded the RITTERKREUZ as a Major on April 20th 1943...
I figuerd it wouldent get more minty then this, he he..

The guy in the background looks kinda dejected...like he was promised an RK also but they only had the one for Wilhelm.

Thanks Leander!

There is a description on the back, but it's hard to read.
I've also coloured this photo.
