Deutsches Kreuz in Silber 20
Well worn, used and abused but it only cost $7 (yes, seven dollars). My wife said the lady was happy to sell it. She didn't know it was real only that it had a swastika and she thought I'd like it. Thanks, Honey! A real once in a lifetime chance. It's the only way this retired old collector could ever have one in his modest collection.
I wanted to share this story just to let you see what's still out there if you happen to at the right place at the right time.
A very nice original cross that's seen some wear that adds to it's overall charm, and at 7 bucks that sure is the deal of a lifetime, I mean, why not 10????
Regards, Ned.

Hahaha that is incredible. Thank you for sharing this with us!
I wonder if the lady have some more great objects for a couple of bucks...

You could make her day by bunging her an extra 13$. She'd be chuffed & you're still quids in (or dollars). Stewy

What about paypal. Stewy
I do feel a bit guilty about things but experience tells me that since everyone is happy to just "Let It Be" (I love The Beatles) Think about it, if I show up throwing more money at her it will eventually cause doubt.
Yes, other things came with the sale and here's a pic of the group showing their condition before I had them cleaned by a jeweler friend of ours.
BTW that's the L14 Verwundetenabzeichen 1939 in Silber that's been causing so much controversy. That's why I feel it's an original although weird badge.
Thanks for your comments everyone, I really appreciate it as I have had better days.
Best regards,
Dennis
Your call my friend
I'm with Stewey on this, make the woman's day, show some kindness and gain some good kharma. Even if you bunged her $50 you're still miles ahead.
