There were not so many makers when talking about 1813 and 1870 EKs.
Regardless the originality, based on above piecture the 1870 EKs seem to be type A made by Wagner. The 1813 cross at 12 o'clock in the photo shows feature of Godet made pieces with wide frame, however hard to tell without front view.

I strongly recommend you to post some detailed photos in order to see if they are originals or not, especiall the one on non-combat ribbon.

... based on above piecture the 1870 EKs seem to be type A made by Juncker.

I did not know that Juncker made 1870 Eks.

I did not know that Juncker made 1870 Eks.

I was absolutely wrong, Wagner is what I meant.

concerning 1813 crosses there could be around 7/8 jeweler be involved .
2 known .

1870 4 makers known for sure ... plausible more involved,,,,, yet the unknown still to be found.

looking at the picture I see 1813 /1830 peace and a few A type 1870's ,,
indeed closeups needed .

Am I correct in saying that in the book "The Iron Cross 1813-1870-1914 " by Dr. Framk Wernitz 12 are mentioned.
