Original or repro Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse?

[Sohail]

Hi there, I found this iron cross at a flea market not too long ago and I am very sure it is an original but I would prefer more opinions on this piece. This particular cross is an unmarked example that is magnetic and is made of a three piece construction. It is a bit battered up. I have seen reproductions which are magnetic and are made of three pieces and I just want to make sure it is not one of those reproductions.





Thanks for the help!

Looks like a fine original piece to me

Larger photos would have helped, but it seems OK, and lucky you being able to get to a flea market during this pandemic. There's been bugger-all up here in the North West!

Yeah I managed to find this piece with a few other pieces in a flea market in Slovakia despite this pandemic going on. I seem to find more memorabilia in Slovakia then in the UK for some reason.

That appears to be a Rudolf Souval. They were made both during and likely after the war. Nice flea market find.

I agree, it appears to be a Souval to me as well.
