Hi guys,

I wanted to show my latest purchase, which is this cased Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse by Klein & Quenzer. I have compared it with other examples and believe that the construction and details look good so went ahead with the purchase. I would appreciate any of your thoughts on this item

Thanks everyone!

The cross looks fine to me, congrats!
You can compare with my example posted here. Mine did not come in this case, but I believe it is a correct later type.

Thanks for your feedback Ralph! Lovely EK1 that you have by the way

Nice K&Q cross indeed.

The one I have has similar hardware but appears to have a different core as the date is slightly different to yours.

Cheers

Cheers Jamie, appreciate your comments. Like Ralph, lovely cross you have there- I love the 'been there' look that it has and if only it could speak. I am very happy with my set, perfect one popped up at the right moment
