    I have not. Do you have a photo looking straight on and the same of the front please. Not sure if the pin is K&Q either, but others will be able to tell you.

        Looks like an earlier Meybauer pin, which are pretty distinctive and as far as I know unique to Meybauer.

        I believe that type of 65 mark has been shown on here before. I do not recall the outcome of those discussions.

        To me, an unusual combination of pin and marking. I'll be interested in the explanation!

        Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

        If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

          This is certainly a Meybauer cross, IMO. The entire hardware and even the patina to the backplate of the cross look like typical Meybauer. IMO, the ‘65’ mark is pure bogus, not even a chance of being authentic. It’s a downright shame that this cross was ruined like this.

                that 65 mark is a very old post war one- it is occasionally found on period badges by several makers- I believe it most likely dates to the time when marked stuff was considered more desirable and as such commanded more money- 1960's approx
