EK2 "25" for discussion

[skip]

Gentlemen,

seems hard for me to believe but there appear to be some doubts surrounding this cross. I therefore throw it open for discussion.
Your comments please.

I had this one once:
same fake core (the numerals 1+9 are joined, and 1813 is very 'thin-looking'), different frame though...

I'd like to thank Skip for placing this here. I noticed the blob between the 1 & 9, and the arms are just....not right. Although the "age" on it looks good, the cross - to me - just didn't.

And thanks to members for opinions. That's what we're here for!

Gentlemen,

thankyou very much. I must say I´m very suprised to find copys of the EK2 in such high quality. You must have a very hard time here determining whats good and not.

Badge has been scratched "copy" and given to my kids to play with. I doubt it will remain in one piece very long.
