    EK1 by KO is it a fake?

    Hi guys,

    I have an EK1 marked KO in my collection and I have this nagging feeling that it is a repro. I have looked at several threads dealing with KO EKs but am still uncertain about my EK1.

    Can I get some advice on this to put me out of my predicament either way?

    Regards

    Steve

      Looks to be a good KO with a repainted core that makes the 1914 look faint Regards Chris

        Hi Chris,

        Thanks, it certainly looks as if it has been repainted and unless you get the light on it correctly it is almost impossible to see any detail on the crown.

        Regards

        Steve

          Hello Steve,

          I have a couple of KO crosses here which you can use to compare. The W on these crosses is very flat.

                  Hi guys,

                  Thanks for the help and the pictures, mine seems to match Tonys, I understand from reading earlier threads that KO had two styles of EK1. Does anyone know why this is the case?

                  Regards

                  Steve
