    EK II WWI non magnetic Deumer?

    I recently bought this non magnetic EK II! I believe this is a Deumer cross, a replacement cross from ww II, but I am not very sure?

    Weight : 15,9 gram
    Ring size : 15,3 mm
    Size cross 43,3 x 43,2

    The core rattles in the frame, when you shake it!


    I can not find much about this type off cross, because the most I see and read about, have a magnetic core! I could find one thread here on this forum, but with no attachments anymore and from years ago!

    May be someone can tell me a little bit more about this type off cross?

      Thank you Kay,

      Oké, that declares the weight! It is lighter than a Schinkel non magnetic from the same year and maker ( 18,1 gram)!

      You use the term 'often´, but I can not find much about this non magnetic variant of the EK II, also not in the book of Frank Wernitz ......just that makes it interesting for me!

      I bought the cross because it is a little peace in the whole EK history and it is the example/ Parts narrator of the Schinkel variant.

          Nice patina.......very, very worn cross. Most of the time, the core is rusting away, here it is it the frame. But still a beautiful time document (relic).

          I have seen more EK I WWI with a non magnetic core, more than EK II. Recently I bought a Deumer EKI WWI with a non magnetic core (copper) myself!

          I like the copper cores, because they have a beautiful patina when they are worn on the high places ( crown and W).

          I think that mine Deumer EK II has a zink core, because off the weight!
