Thoughts on KC with Swords

[foxl]

Hello Dear collectors,
As i have just have been starting a Collection of german ww2 medals i do Not know all Variants/fakes of the Knights Cross.

In the Book of Mr März i cant figure out its a souval of new rounder or something Else?

Marked 800, Silver tested, magnetic Core.

Do you have and thoughts?
Gretings, Fabian

Thanks for the warm welcome.
I read quite a Lot here in the formum and learnd a Lot!.
In Mr. März Book and also here its statet, That the inner corners with That typical pattern should be a Juncker. But neither Souval or the rounder are faking That.

I cant See a flat swastika, Numbers Show no hanging...

So i Need some help with judging this one; and also the swords...

I think this was shown here the other day. Declared fake all round. A Junker copy cross and fake OLS. That said, they are very nice fillers. Not Souval either.

Both examples in the thread, and the link are the same RK, O/S.

Is this being offered for sale on some internet site, so that two different members in two different nations are seeking the same answers?

Thanks a lot for your thoughts.
I wonder, if its a known or common fake; early or late and if its documented elsewhere. Has it a name like "rounder" or "souval"...?

[foxl]

in the same auction there was another KC, which i consider also as "fake".
It was also sold for app. 500 Dollar.
Is that a rounder?
