Imperial Eks

Hi Pavel,

Very nice loking cross
I agree, this is my favorite degree of patina too ! Dont fancy mint crosses to much.
My very first WW1 EK 1 was a S-W too ! Still one of my favorite makers, making very good quality crosses .

Very nice cross. My first EK1 had same generic core, although it was KO maker. I don´t know if yours is precisely from 1917, but I think it is wartime awarded piece for sure.

Lol - my first WWI EKI was also a S-W.
'SW' are my initials.........

Chopperman, unimarc, miro, and Walkwolf: Thank you very much for your kind comments and I am glad that you like the cross as much as I do. Funny to see for how many collectors was a S-W the very first EK I.

Hopefully I will be able to buy him a brother or two... or a dozen of them. Something tells me it is impossible to stop by only one cross. :-)

Once upon a time, I thought I would like to have "a" iron cross.

I posted this on another thread, But when I saw the comment about wanting "1" EK, I thought I'd post this here. One other I have that's not a EK or even German, But "I WILL NOT COLLECT AUSTRIAN!!" (yeah, right.)
