Hi Gents,
need help about originality of this DK in gold - signed "1" - Deschler & Sohn, München. Everything looks OK to me, but I´d like to have Your opinions on it.
Thanks a lot!

Hin big ned,
yes I´d like to buy it, what´s your opinion, what I saw You´re an Expert on DK. So I´m waiting on your result. Thanks a lot!

Save your money would be my advice.
I see several problems with this "Deschler" cross which would be a convincing copy to many collectors on first sight, but the wrong shaped pin, to a lesser extent the makers mark (looks odd but they used several different punches over time), and the crimped rivets are all red flags. But the critical point is why would a Deschler made DK be utilising a Godet wreath???That's the killer my friend.
You owe me a pint, Ned.

I agree with Ned also the centre's out of place.
