    IMO, I would pass on this one.
    Looks to be a one piece cast fake to me.
    Wait for more opinions.

    I'm not sure on this one either, just doesn't look quite right to me. I'm sure someone will be along soon to shed more light on this one.

    The under and over "8" is a sure sign of a fake.

    Sorry I'm late to the conversation.
    Unfortunately Ralph, Brett and Ken are spot on. This one is indeed
    a bad fake. The font style of the date and the pot-hole crown are dead give aways.
    None of those features are present on period original crosses.
