Baltic Cross 1st Class Opinions Please

[theepiphanynow]

Gentlemen,

This is a new award to me, and i have no idea what to say about originality. Compared to the few others that i have seen, it appears to be close at least, but i am not sure yet what i am looking for. It is for sale, and i would like to take a crack at it if it is a good one. Also, help with value would be good too.

Thanks,

Jeremiah

It's a very nice Baltic Cross made by Maybauer.

Looks like a nice one, is that a maker's mark under the pin?

Thanks guys. I am thinking of purchasing this one, and these are the only photos that i have at the moment. I will post it up fully if and when i get it.

Sincerely,

Jeremiah

Hi,
What makes you think it's Meybauer? All Meybauer BC designs are different from this one. If the one shown here has Meybauer MM then it's a fake, I'm afraid...

I have finally gotten some photos of the reverse of this piece with the pin open. Any ideas?

Hi,
As I told already, it's a fake one. There was no Baltic Cross with such design made by Meybauer. You can do a search on a forum and compare, or I can send you some photos of a real one.
