Hi, this type of core is not known (to me) with sidehooks, but it doesn´t mean such type doesn´t exist. Mine Koch & Bergfeld wasn´t known with sidehooks as well, until I found one...
Anyway, I would like to see the pictures of frames soldering, details of sidehooks and better photos of obverse as well before saying anything serious about this piece.

I would like to see much better pictures. My initial feeling about
this one is not good.

myself around.
Something does not look right personally, but yes better pics will be needed .
Not for me either, so far :-/

Gentlemen,
I have bought lately this cross and it is marked "FR"; the mark is stamped in a small box directly under the catch. For long I believed that all combinations of the letters F and R stand for the same maker, Friedländer, but I remember reading somewhere that there is actually a difference between Fr., Fr, and FR marks. Therefore I will greatly appreciate your opinion on the maker of this cross. Thank you.
Pavel.
Beautifully patinated cross!!! I believe that FR is Frank & Reif, Stuttgart.

Thank you, Miro. That is interesting. Do you believe this is a war-time cross? I am asking because I thought that Frank&Reif was only a Third Reich era producer and this core seems to be used by several other makers (WS, Roesner?).
Agree with Miro :-)
Very nice cross you got there, I got one just like it with engravings on the back .
Mfg
Marc
