Eisernes kreuz...fake or original?

[REINHARD66]

Good morning
These are my two crosses 1939 purchased a long time ago, and I would like to feel one opinion of yours if they are authentic.
I hope that the photos are clear..
The second cross doesn't have a mark, but it would be a pleasure to know, if and' authentic, who and' the builder.
A thanks in advance

I don't see anything glaringly wrong with either one. Proportions and details look right, ribbons are of the correct weave. The only thing I've noticed is the proportions of the numbers on each cross, which look slightly 'off', but that might just be my eyes.

I have one that you can use as a comparison...

Both crosses are good. The ring marked one is a number 55 for J.E. Hammer & Söhne, Geringswalde........ For some reason they always show up with excellent finishes

Here's another 55 for comparison
