1914 Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse, screwback, for opinions

[jamie7d7]

Hey guys

I've been quite on the Imperial front for a while. But hopefully, if this one is good it'll get me back in the game.

Look forward to your opinions.

Hi Jamie,
I'm not really sure about this one. I'm not really good with these "large crown,
closed 4" crosses. I know that some are the real deal but I also know that the fakes
are pretty damn good.

One thing that caught my eye right away is the hardware used on the back. No othe that stuff
looks original to any cross I know. Which lead me to check my files to see what original screwback
should look like. Of the 3 makers of this style I have pictures of ( S-L, Deumer & Deschler) all of them
have the female threaded post on the cross and the male end on the screwdisc. The one posted is opposite
of that. I know that Linder made a screwback version of this cross but I do not have a good picture
of the reverse hardware.

Just my thoughts. Like I said, I'm not very good with this style.

Many thanks Greg

Yeah I’ve had a good search of the internet and not had much luck finding similar.

I think I’ll let it slide and move onto the next one.

Cheers

Jamie
