Does this look like the real deal ??
Zimmerman ?
It looks like the one Greg showed a little while ago, except for the stamp, which is a star, and not "silber" !
My book on EK's show this cross, but also with the silver mark, not the star !?
Also, I find it hard to se if the iron is painted or blued !
Marc,
It certainly looks good but a better shot of the front of the cross
would help. The date really looks convincing. The sans-serif
style "9" and the closed "4". Seem right. I would like to
see the crown and inner corners.

I don't think the stamp is an issue. I have seen
that mark on a Zimmerman pinback. The one thing
I find interesting is that the one you show has the
screw "nut" on the cross and the threaded post on
the backplate. Mine has the threaded post on the
cross and the "nut" is on the backplate.
This is the first one I have seen like this but I don't
think it's cause for concern.
