Hello!

Kind regards,

Andy, the cross looks fine, but, since these are relatively
common, shop around and be sure you don't pay too much.
Shouldn't be more than about $45., cased.
Regards, Paul

BUT!

These are so plentiful, I'd hold out for a better condition one with a nicer ribbon!! My 2-Cents!

Looks good to me. For comparison I payed US$40 for mine (cased) but didn't recieve a ribbon instead I got the single ribbon bar that went with it.

Nice cross! No problem with it.

I agree with all the above. You should easily be able to find a minty one with all its splendid coppery finish still intact at a reasonable price.

Always easier to go with the best one you can find than be "upgrading" later. These are quite plentiful.
