    As stated...an original 1914 EK II, it does indeed look to be maker marked, but I can not make it out...have you magnifying glass, so you can see it in hand ? I have added your attachment as a photograph to the post....
    Prost ! Steve.

    Thanks for the additional photograph...definitely a mm, but I still can not make it out, looks to me to either a "Z" = "Zeich" of Berlin, a "H" = "Paul Hossaur" of Berlin or an "N" "Neun" of Rosner, Sachsen. Lets see if other members can see what I can not !
    Prost ! Steve.

    Nice original cross and ribbon.
    I'm not sure who the maker is.
