Question on 1914 EK 2nd class

[mp409mm]

I have this EK 1914 second class with a 25mm ribbon.
It is marked on the ring G, so it looks, does this mean it is a Godet Cross?
And is it normal for EKs will be with a 25mm ribbon than the usual 30mm ?
Thank you.
Regards
Alf.

Try comparing it to the crosses in the database.

Hi Alf,

It's a good Godet. The ribbon would originally have been 30mm but the original recipient could have put a 25mm ribbon on there. 25mm ribbons were used often in the buttonhole of the uniform.

Thank You Streptile, as I said I compared it with the data base here in the Forum and I thought so; with your reply it seems that I am learning something after all.
And thank you for the information regarding the ribbon question, one learn something everyday
