    Good day everyone.
    I would like to be sure on this beautiful DKiG, marked 134 for Otto Klein & Co. For me it looks to be perfect, original cross, in very nice condition and not that easy to find, but I am far away from expert in these.
    I would appreciate Your helpful opinions a lot.
    Best regards gentleman,
    Peter

    Good day.
    I have an additional question. As far as I know it is not! uncommon that the swastika on DKiG is a little bit loose?! It is a bit loose on mine, when I touch it I can hear it .
    Thanks and regards,
    Peter

    I have no experience on judging the originality of these, but I hope it's a good one. Certainly a beautiful cross.

    All the details appear to match original Otto Klein I've seen before, but please wait for other opinions before pulling the trigger on it.

    I am also not an expert on these, but it looks good based on my (somewhat limited) experience. If the DKiG is in your possession, gently clean off the green verdigris concealing the maker mark so it can be evaluated a bit better. If I were looking to buy this cross, I would check that the rivets, pin, and catch all conform to known Otto Klein characteristics. That's something the hard core German Cross guys know off the top of their head, but I have to look up when I am authenticating one.

    I magnified the maker's mark and the 4 looks pretty darn good.

    Thanks Jay.
    The cross is original,no doubt about that. I was only thinking how comes that the swastika is loose...didn't know until today that it can happen.

    Good evening.
    It's original DKiG. Everything You mentioned matches the known Otto Klein&Co characteristics.
    I was surprised that the swastika can be a bit loose.

    Good evening.
    Thanks Nick. Cross is original as mentioned before & I have to say that it has a very nice wear to it, gives a feeling that it has "been through battles".

    These are multi piece construction. So it would not surprise me if one part could come loose.
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
