Unmarked Eisernes Kreuz 2.Klasse.
Hello,
is this Iron Cross 2nd class an original one?
It's unmarked and magnetic.
Thanks!

Hello,
here's the back:

It looks like a Steinhauer & Luck type cross. Definitely original.

Really? I actually thought it looked sort of 'mushy'. I have a very similar one that I always assumed was a fake. Maybe I should dig that up...

I would have second thoughts on it too. The corners of the arms look mushed. Maybe I just haven't seen enough S&Ls.

At first glance it looked to me like the details were a bit too blurry, almost as if the paint was too thick or if the beading had been pressed. The beading looked a little uneven and sketchy to me, too. It almost appears to be one-piece at first.
I am not an EK expert, but these are just things that just stood out for me. Maybe I just need to change my contacts.

Don't forget this is a scan and not a photo. The details do get blurred.
