[Panzer1945]

Hello,
can you look please on this EK1 1870. Is everything ok? Is it an original authentic cross from manufacturer WAGNER & S.?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards
Panzer

I don't like this one either.

Yes, another fake.
This is the so called "9th bead fake" It's easy to spot by the
overly large 9th bead in the sweat band and the over/ under style date.
