Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse 1914. Is it original and who is the maker?

[Reconquista]

Hello Folks,

I could buy this iron cross for 160 EUR including shipping costs.

Can you please tell me if it is original and who is the manufacturer?

Best regards

Run the other way, it's a fake. I think they call this the pumpkin crown fake.

Date, crown, hinge, pin, 800 stamp, thickness all look bad. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if it is made in one piece.

I echo the above comments

Really bad fake.
