    Flea market Ek2

    I picked this up at a flea market this last weekend. It's a "W-S" marked
    cross on a court mount style ribbon. There is just a small remnent of navy
    blue backing material still attached. It's pretty rough but is was such a
    cheap price I couldn't say no.

    This is my first court mount Ek2.

    Nice catch, Greg.

    No pin left on this one?

    I like this particular style of mounted EK the best of the 3 or 4 I can think of.

    Thanks for showing it.
    Best regards,
    Streptile

    Looking for ROUND BUTTON 1939 EK1 Spange cases (LDO or PKZ)

      Hi Greg,

      That's why I loooove flea markets. Nice example - and it displays well despite the missing reverse.

      Regards

        Hi Greg,


        It's a nice mounted EK2, but I have a strong suspicion that the absence of any indication of a hinge an catch indicates this is probably part of a broken up medal bar, rather than a single court mount. I'll be interested to hear what other have to say.

        Regards
        Mike

        Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

          I have to agree with Mike. At one time this was part of a larger bar. Still a nice cross though.

              Here's another, same style. I think the holes are there in case you want the medal sew down so it doesn't swing. Ammersee

                  Another opinion
                  Which ever way it ends up, it's still a keeper although I do hate the thought of someone butchering medalbars.

                  Ammersee,
                  Thanks for posting that Franz Joseph medal. It 's a great looking piece.
