Does anyone know of or has anyone seen an EK2 makers mark which is apparently a circle with a cross in the middle?

Silly question perhaps but do you have a picture Adrian? There are makers marks, that when slightly mis -struck or worn can be viewed as a cross, perhaps with an outline of a circle. I am thinking of +M+ for example. I have seen one so badly marked that only one cross was visible, I thought I had a new maker!

No, sorry guys, I've seen an EK2 for sale which apparently has a makers mark, I asked the seller what mark it is and he told me it was a circle with a cross in the centre. I've asked for pics but wondered in the meantime if anyone recognised this mark?Comment

That's a new one to me

O ,I think I know what auction you mean ...
if aim Wright its not the full marking ( in his description)
if it is a real mark
it can be +m+ mark
its two clover leaf's with in the middle a M
those clover leafs often mistaken as crosses
and its in an oval

The closest thing I can think of is the two marks on either side of +M+. Maybe it's a partial strike of this.Comment
