Nick,
The cross looks good to me. Not sure about the ribbon. The weave looks
good and it's looped on both sides but the condition of the ribbon seems
to be a lot better than the condition of the cross. IMO it would be worth
taking a chance on it.

I was addicted to the "Hokey-Pokey" but I've turned
myself around.
I like this one and IMO its a good Imperial EK.
I have one or two in my collection that look similar to this one, with its core showing through the black finish and a few scars to the frame. I also like the patina to the frame on this one. This EK has been around and well used and for me that adds just a little bit more to the mystery of each one.
I agree with Greg regarding the ribbon, it looks to be a period one but IMO I would say it has been added to the cross over time.
A nice EK Nick
Ken
