Wiederholungsspange EK2 for opinions

Afternoon all

These are the only images I have at present. But I'm hoping someone might be able to decipher whether or not this is a legit spange.

Thanks

Hi Jamie,
The photos are not the best, but it looks like it could be a Ziemer & Sohne, also known as Big Eye.

I have pictures saved of a few Ziemer examples and all of them have squared off
prongs instead of pointed ones.

Thanks Greg and Ralph

My only other spange is a Ziemer and it is different to this.

The seller has sent 2 more images...

I am going to suggest that it might be a unmarked L/14 by Freidrich Orth.
Found this picture on the interwebb ---

Got word from a collector of these here beasties.

Apparently it's a well known fake and to be chased from the village with pitchfork and flame torch

Good to know. I will keep a copy in my files for future reference.
