Help requested for WWI Iron Cross

[drm2m]

This is not my area of expertise.
I bought this Iron Cross many years ago and I misplaced it---recently found I am trying to find out if it is legit.

Marked 1914 on the front---no markings on the rear.
The front responds to a magnet----the rear less so.
The case used to be in decent condition but somehow it has suffered over the years.

What is this piece likely to be worth ?









This is another Cross that I have had for a longer time.
It appears to be made out of a non-magnetic material.
Markings--1813 on one side 1914 on the other side.






I only have one WWI German piece in my collection---a unit marked Artillery Luger with various accessories.

The EK1 is authentic. If you look closely beneath the catch, you will spot a KO marking. This cross is by the way made by KO.

Great Dansson---under the crud I found a KO marking.
Thanks for your help.

It is original and felt by some to be one of the more desirable EKs to acquire due to the quality.

P.S. Nice cross!
