2 1939 Spange to the Iron Cross 2nd Class 1914 (L11 e L12)

[wschmidt]

Hello People,

Any opinion about these 2 1939 Spange to the Iron Cross 2nd Class 1914?

One is L11 and another L12 (Junckers). Is the manufacture mark of L11 correct in inferior side of reverse?

Regards,

I think your L/12 Spange is a fake.

Hi
L/11 looks correct
L/12 is another matter, do a search for L/12 marked EK2 spangen, and make up your own mind...

Hi William,

I don't like the L/12 clasp for these reasons
The design is not like Juncker-pieces
It lacks detail
The mm looks odd, like it's been engraved in stead of struck
and the prongs are made from two strips instead of 4 separate prongs.

If you do a forum search you will notice the difference with Juncker-clasps.

Best regards,
Ben

Hi William,

I had seen it on the E-Stand too, but after seing better pics I decided to pass on it, and I also wrote the seller why.

I think people are to insecure to express their thoughts on certain pieces.

I may be totally wrong, but I don't like it a bit.
In fact I even doubt it i an original clasp.

Best regards,
Ben
