Yes, I have seen Floch reproductions in 1st & 2nd Class. They are of three piece construction, and with magnetic cores. . .
...and how can you tell the difference in that case?
By comparing characteristics with known originals and known reproductions, and by talking, sharing and networking with other collectors around the world as we do here. . . After a while you develop an eye for this sort of thing, you gain some experience, but then again, even I have been fooled. That's where our peers come in to help keep us honest; with ourselves and each other. I never stop learning. If I am not sure, I ask. . .
Well said

Wolfman... we cant be 100% from pics but if it isnt a good one then its a good not good one hahahaha
Hi Gary, that is a very nice original EKII.
Cheers, Ade.
The size is correct @ 43mm,(between 42-44mm) its construction is correct,& it looks to be marked on the suspension ring (use a jewellers spyglass) so i'd say it has everything going for it to be an original. Dont forget that millions of these medals were produced (3,803,384 to be exact), so a softness/loss of detail to the crown, oakleaves & other ornamentation evolved as dies were used to pump out the huge amounts of impressions.
