I wouldn't touch it with a flag pole. The whole cross looks like a terrible fake IMHO, the swastika looks way too big and if you look in this picture, it looks like somebody has done a lot of scratching, probably to "age it". https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/milit...705_165716.jpg

Hi Vegar, Thank You, could you possibly send a closeup of an authentic one?

Just thought you might have a few on hand...
Sorry, if I owned one, I would be the luckiest guy in town, hehe. You could always try google, here is at least one: 4/935 Ritterkreuz with Original Frosting | Knights Cross.org
Can I ask where it is being offered?
Best Regards

really bad date font.
avoid.
Actually the Swastika on the example @ Knightscross.org is even larger, it touches the reeded points...
The one I submitted is for sale but I have not purchased it yet, that's why I'm here! Seems the general consensus is fake, but in the future I will submit some others that I own. This has been a lot of enjoyment! Thank You!

Terrible Fake...You don't have to own one to know this is no good...Not even close.
Hopefully, for your sake, your other ones are good ! - BTW, welcome to the Forum.........
A couple of 'good' crosses :

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
