      Great Royal family.
      I've got 1870 and 1914 but I am missing the older and younger
      family members.

        Thanks guys, basically whats left of the crew except for 3 more. 45 Prinzes walked through over the years but never found a 1914 CFZ EKII with Silver frames.

          Very nice set. I must admit, I was in envy with that last piece. As I remember it came out of emedals with the story that it is only one of two pieces found in Zimmermann hoard. But this year, emedals started to pour these crosses in EK1 and EK2 versions, offering few pieces even through auctions for very reasonable prices.

          I am wondering what happened. New room found in Zimmermann factory?

          I know it is not right forum section to discuss these pieces, but I would rather prefer chamber conversation, then to discuss (at the end only with you) and to fight simultaneously with opinions of others that these crosses never existed, because Hitler would never...

          I really don´t like when somebody surely knows what Hitler would say...

            There was 5 found, according to Barry at Emedals. He said that back in 2010. Those are counted for now (2 EKIs and 3 EKIIs) if some has not been turned back to him and resold. Will be very interesting to see if more turns up. Recently bought another EKII that was rusty, only a small piece of core is still blued. One loose frame in bad shape has also been sold as part of a lot. At least 2 1914 Prinzen also came out of the find, they match the ones we call CFZ.

              According to the "mother thread", there were Five Prinzens alltogether.

                Info comes from me, misunderstood Barry. There was 5 1939s and unknown number of 1914, saw 2 of those. Will update that thread so we can spare this forum from "irrelevant" stuff, hehe. Been working on a thread that connects the known items from find but sadly didn't get very far yet, got stuck in Imperial minis for too long...
