    ww2 EK2 marked 800

    I know there was a couple threads about these crosses, but there's still no answer(i guess) i mean if there were such crosses? I know L/18 has additional mark 800(one of variants) but is there any kind with single mark 800?

    If I were to spend money on a historic relic I would certainly spend it wisely, rather than gamble on questionable items like this. Just my own personal thoughts.

    Respectfully,

        Hi,

        Imo at best an unmarked genuine cross with two attempts (90 degrees apart) at an 800 stamp to increase value.

        I don't see any patina indications to indicate silver, just normal patina for nickel-silver.

        Regards
        Mike

        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!

          IMO it's secondary, post-war "800" punc, like these from photos ...

            The signature may even be original. Only (IMO) circle is not from this cross.

              Yeah I noted this gap on small ring...
              So at best it’s genuine one with later 800 stamped on it, or “hybrid” of two crosses. Anyway like Robert said it’s better to keep my money in the pocket.

                The cross is original - but that was not the question.
                However, whether the small ring was soldered again, IMO it's doubtful.
                I will bet, the signature "800" is secondary.

                        I Have an early 57er S & L EKII with the ring stamped 4, their wartime PKZ number, so they obviously used leftover wartime parts, many manufacturers of WWII medals must have had leftover EK parts from Imperial times, rings stamped with mm or silver content, could these be hybrids with imperial rings? just a thought
