1870 EKII for Review

[Element7]

Hello,

So this is my $95 eBay cross I picked up last week. I'm pretty sure it's a good Type A but I claim no expertise and I would be grateful if you folks would confirm my thoughts. Of course I was dumbfounded when I found the listing as it's not everyday you find an 1870 for less then a $100! I didn't exercise the best offer option with this one!

The cross came with a ribbon and Jubilee Spange but my the zoom on my cheap lens malfunctioned when I was taking pics so I can't show you that now. I really need a better macro lens! Anyway I'm pretty sure the Spange is fake but I will add it to thread later.

As always I appreciate any comments good or bad.

Best Regards,
Kirby

Very nice cross at about 1/4 the normal price.

Thank you for the confirmation guys

What do you think about the 25th Anniversary Oaks? I can take it off the ribbon and take shoots of the reverse if necessary. Unfortunately one of the attachment prongs is broken but otherwise in good condition.

Thanks
Kirby
