To have handle one of these non magnetic core and non parallel 1813, I feel that this cross could be a nice start for discussion for Dietrich

Please discuss the cross.

There are basically two possibilities with this cross:


1. It's an A-Type, then it could be early. But why the 'painted' finish? It also should be noted very clearly that Detlev does NOT list an unmarked, unmagnetic S&L in his book ...

2. It's a B-Type and then one has to ask why S&L did switch from 935-4 Type to a non-silver non-magnetic? For sure it would be a late war.....or a little bit later ...

One would need pictures of the 'dent row' area.

Looks like thatthe second solution could be the best choice.
Here is a pic of one exemple that has a straight date (unmarked, non magnetic)
