How do you recignize it's nit genuine? Please tell Me for the future.
Dawid, the cross has numerous details that differentiate it from pre-WW2 or PSZ era crosses. Details such as the eagle and the entire center disc, the overall shape of the cross, etc. They are subtle and you will need to train your eye to spot them. You will need to invest time studying genuine examples and comparing them to each other. The VM threads here on the forum will be helpful to you. And I recommend that you purchase the most recent Wojciech Stela book on the XX century VM. It has many good images of crosses produced by the various makers.
Regards,
Tony
