Looks original to me HOWEVER why people find in nessecary to clean and polish the
frames is beyond me. It removes any sence of history the cross would have showed
and it IMO really cheapens the appearence of the cross.

To each there own I guess.

Thanks for the additional pictures. They show better details in the frame.
Sorry for my rant earlier

You have a nice cross. Most likely made by Wagner.

Very nice cross from the award era, but we have no idea who made it (means who made the frame and put in the core).
