Hi Kirby, a very quick note. The 1813 (with blank front) seems to be a sanded down 1914. The 1870 is a 1895 Jubileé version, i think it's good.Comment

Carl is right.
Your 1870 EK2 is a good Jubilee. The exact type is discussed at some length HERE. It's not the most desirable 1870 -- in fact probably the least. But it's authentic 1895 period.
Your 1813 EK2 is basically a fake: a real 1914 EK2 with the front sanded down.
The two other Imperials seem legit. The EK1 is a common but very nice original often stamped '800,' and the EK2 has an interesting-looking core.
But whatever you pay, pay for the three crosses only (not the "1813").Best regards,
Streptile

Absolutely agreed the bottom right is simply a ground down.
Rest are all sort of OK.Comment
