urgend question: IS this EK II 1813 good??

[Hagrid]

Hello to all who really know!
This cross is up for an auction tomorrow and I would like to know whether it´s good or not.
Sorry for asking (there are several threads around, I know...), but I´m a newbie to this field and time is pressing...
(These are the only pictures I have - hope they are good enough!)
Thank you for your input
Regards

Thank you so much for your opinions!
I was not sure about the "round" upper corner of the beading on the 9 o'clock arm on the obverse . Is it just flattened by wear?
Same about the colour of the rust speckles - I've heard the more orange version is not old enough and mostly seen on fakes.
And the rust on the frame - silver should not corrode like this. Or is it just flaking of the iron core?
We will see...
By the way: I was mistaken about the date of the auction: It will be on Saturday...

I totally agree...
My first impression was good, but I'm in doubt due to mentioned reasons.

Nothing wrong with that cross.
Tarnished frame that probably has not been polished in my lifetime.
The rust might be just be from improper storage in the last 20-30 years.
Perhaps moved to a high humidity environment .

Just to keep you informed:
Hammerprice was 1000 Euro + surcharge (215 Euro)
