No mention more about THE MOST RARE DKiG? Wreath and back looks like good. This cross type no one sees for a long time.

[Dietrich Maerz]

Allow me to correct you: the most rare German Cross is the 7 rivet 1st Type Junker, followed by the L/52 marked Zimmermann, not the 10 rivet (which are no rivets) from Deschler.

[Dietrich Maerz]

Coming back to the 10 "rivet" Deschler: it is nice to see how the heads are formed and how flat some are. This is a sign of - either ex works or by the awardee - to put more pressure on the rivets since they are sometimes very loose and make the cross rattle. A typical sign of a early Deschler with this type of rivet.

All like rivets? They are not typical. It is need to pictures with a corner of 45 degrees

The numbers , I am not sure. But have owned two L/52 and never held the ten rivet. Juncker 7 rivet yes, stand corrected.

They are typical for the early Deschlers, then changed,
and maybe were used for some early 4 rivets as showed here (pic I have saved one year ago), Dietrich can you confirm or these ones are another type?

[Cook]

This DK raises the doubts. Rivets are altered, in my opinion. On early Deschler - rivets not as at it DK

[fabri-online]

Rivets altered ? so this professional work with early Deschler rivets is for a case on a Deschler DK ?
Please take a look to the book "The German Cross" pages 83-85-88-94-95 and compare rivets.

[Cook]

Has looked, and what? These are different rivets. It is well visible on page 88. On this type 1, such rivets, did not do.

ok, no problem if we see the same thing with different points of view.
So in your opinion what happened to this cross ?
