Hi guys.

I always enjoy to see EK's in numbers. So please post your EK collection here. It dosen't matter if your collection are 1, 5, 10 or 50 crosses.
That way we know where to look when we want to look at some good EK collect

I will start with my crosses. It's a old picture, so there are a few more now.

WOW!!!! Thats some collection youve got there and shows absolute dedication, time and money-fantastic. I only have one EKII a Steinhauer & Luck but i have to say its one of my favourite pieces. Even after WW2 the EKII was such a highly regarded award and held in great esteem. They are such beautiful things. Regards, Tim.

who owns all those beautiful crosses! thats crazy!

Here's my one and only WW2 German EKII! This example was third time lucky for me as the previous two i had bought turned out to be fakes (one being a Floch!). This one is a Steinhauer & Luck and came from Shadowwolf Simon. Its quite surprising to see how some members have specialised in these awards and have such huge collections. I think they are superbly made pieces and no wonder the Iron Cross would continue to be held in such high esteem even years after WW2. Regards, Tim.
