1914 EK 2 Klasse Original or fake

Hello,
I found something like this on the internet.
It is a bit reminiscent of a 2nd class Prussian Iron Cross, only I don't like the ring, it looks like the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross, but this cross is 42x42mm (The grand cross is about 64.74x64.74mm)
Can you please write to me what it actually is and is it a copy?
I am intrigued by this topic.
I will be very grateful!

The cross is an Imperial 1914 made by KO in a ww2 sized frame.
small ring has been removed and replace sideways. My guess is
that someone has been playing with their soldering gun. whoever did
could not even get the ring centered on the cross

It could never be mistaken for a Knights cross or a Grand cross.
It really serves no purpose wat so ever.

I agree with Greg.
Most likely why you only received photos with the top out of focus.
You can just barely see the excess solder in the first photo.
