IMO, the latter. Most Floch's I've seen have had a stamped pin, but this pin was left without one.

Thanks for your comment Robert. So its definitely a Floch.
Looks like it will have to go in the reject bin.

The Floch repros must have cost collecters a mint over the years.

The core is S&L and the frame is S&L, looks like a full S&L cross.

Correct me if I'm wrong,but I dont think floch ever used a brass core.

It doesn't look like a Floch to me. I was Floched once before, and didn't even get kissed first - it seems to be missing the Floch pin flaw and the catch doesn't look like Floch. Also, on most Flochs I've seen, the date is either touching the frame, or is very close to the frame.

I agree with Dansson, this looks like an S&L cross.

[Robert P.]

...oops. I'm sorry, guys!

Has the core been repainted? Not trying too say it is, just curious as it looks a little thick to me, but that just may be the photos or normal for S&L crosses.
