Iron Cross EK2 1870 with Jubilaumsspange 25

[Jelle M.]

So guys is this one original? I have some serious doubt about that, but i could give it a try. It's a bit strange that the W is not in the centre of cross.
Thanx

Hi,

Looks like a good aws to me. Don't know anything about 25 oaks, so I can't comment on these.

Best regards,

Both cross and oaks look fine to me.

AWS and typical style of oaks.

Agree with the fellows above. It's a specific type of cross that uses the AWS core and frame, but the frame flange is trimmed narrower than a "normal" AWS. I have some suspicion -- totally unsupported by real evidence -- that it may be made by some other maker with AWS parts. Mike K. has a nice one:

Nice 1870.
