Help with 1914 EK1

[rhys1]

Hi,

Been looking at this cross and really love the patina. I can make out a ‘3’ or a ‘5’ near the catch - any ideas ?

The cross is a good cross made by Wagner & Sohn. Your 3 or 5 might be a poorly marked "WS".

Thanks Greg, you were spot on. Received the cross today, and yes there is a W next to the S - thank you very much 👍
