Well, I clarification about I mean ...

I have Assmann's cross EK2-1914 signed "A" with the same frame (what this EK1) and with very similar core.
I did not want to be too suggest and that is why I was hoping that someone will confirm that on my EK1 is not the letter "V" but "A", and that it is a cross EK1 Assmann's production ...

Jarek,

Imperials are a lot different than -39.
Most, but not all of them were supplied with parts from subsuppliers, which means that many makers used different parts, that were also used by many others. So labeling a maker on imperial crosses is not always done just like that.

Even if it can be done in many cases, where makers used distinguishing parts or just marked them.


However I believe yours is a unmarked KAG.

The mark under the pin is a quality controll mark, not a makers mark.

That's why I needed an expert opinion.
You explained my doubts
Thanks

I think KAG is a good possibility. The reverse hardware certainly resembles
that used on marked KAG crosses and KAG did use this core in one of there
variations.
