Meybauer Cruciform EK1

[Dansson]

After years of searching, I found one that was affordable and in a condition that I liked, happy days

Very nice example...also with a nice patina

Nice cross and (as expected), nicely photographed.

Great piece! One of the dozen must have EKIs in my opinión

By the way, this would be super into your Gallery thread

[Dansson]

Thanks everyone! I'm very excited about this cross.

I've added it to the gallery as you suggested I could do

(Who would have thought your leather jacket could provide a good photo background?)

Wow! that's a keeper. The additional hallmark on the backplate cross and the Meybauer logo are just too much to ask for one cross. It's stunning!

Yes, there are more marking variations of this special cross. Here another one from my archive. There is DRGM copyright mark only, no silver content or Meybauer shield.

IMO the most 1939-45 Meybauer Cruciform EK1´s 1914 and also the Schinkels are only marked with DRGM and Patent number. They have no silver content.

The early ones with silver content also have these characteristic small gap between the frame and the core.
