sorry, I do not like this cross
I have a '50' OK'd by all on this forum, and is VERY different to yours
IMHO:

IMO your wreath is very reminiscent of repros

[ADOLPH]

Hi, it´s terrible to hear that, I talked to the dealer and he asked me why it´s a copy, how do I know, he needs some info about the details that makes it fake so I would try to get my money back.

Any help?

I agree the first glance I took I didn't like the wreath at all. But I am not an expert.

[tinmantis]

mine is a 100% original KVK1
just explain the differences to the dealer, which are bascially everything! from the wreath, pin, 'dimpling' and general quality.

Adolph;
when you look at this medal,they are struck very hard and precise...I like to see a crisp,well defined wreath,with 'hard" edges on the leaves. if you compare yours with the pics of our forum colleague,you will see how soft the wreath appears to be. there are plenty of these medals around,i would wait for one that is more to form....

[ADOLPH]

Thanks for your help, I´ll try to explain that to the dealer, I hope I´m lucky. I have 2 KVK1 I would like you to have a look, please. It has been very painful to find out a few fakes. I´ll talk to the dealer in a few days, so I hope not to find anymore fakes.
Thanks for your help.

Here are the pics:
