Cased EK 1+2

I saw this fellow passing by.

Both marked "6".

I'll copy this to the "Cases and Packets" Forum for more consideration.

More pic's would be better of course, but in my opinion:

- It's far to small i.e the proportions just look wrong to my mind.

- The EK motif, it could be my eye's but again it dosen't 'correct' in as much to say the angles look odd, to me that is.

It just dosen't 'talk' to me for the lack of a better explanation.


Personally I'd let is pass on by.

Interesting.

Must admit I have never seen this form of cased EK1 & EK11 before.

Has anyone else?

if you go back to ww1, there are plnety of double cases.

I think that this case was for something else. Some verdienstorden or so. The shape on the lid isnt like a EK.

I think original case but for something else.

well, I dont know if its like a WWI box..
Compare it for example to this one...





I am curious about the motif on the front
