Gold Mutterkreuz (Mother's Cross) Opinions Needed Please

[tigertoby]

This gold Mother's Cross arrived in today's mail. I've never seen one in person before. Does she look authentic? Thanks for your opinions.

Looks ok IMO . Mine didn't have the neat clasp on the ribbon though! Nice touch.

I'm with Dean on this one. It looks good. But mine didn't come with a clasp either.

Is the swastika painted?

[tigertoby]

It's hard to tell, but it looks consistent with the rest of the enamel

Looks painted to me.

IMO its a original cross, that lost some enamel in the swastica.
And was painted to disguise...

Fine original cross with a nice variant on the ribbon for wear. The swaz isnt painted enamel is a sort of paint before it goes in the oven to hard out. I think on this cross the enamel wasnt appield as smooth as is should be but i see no red flags

A lovely cross indeed! That ribbon is seldom seen
