Early Cased Deumer EK1

[Nigel N]

Just got another cased EK1, this time a Deumer, one of the earliest ones with the wider hingeblock, as they used on their wartime crosses.
It came in a nice case, which has a black base, like the ones they usually used for KVK1's, it also has the retailers label on the base!!

Very nice cross, and I like the case with the label on it!

That's a corker Nigel! It looks to have very nice frosting on the beading! Nice case too with wartime parts! Having the retail store tag on the case is really cool! So combat awards were sold at sporting goods stores? Can you imagine?
