    It looks like a late-war Steinhauer & Lück but this manufacturer also made post-war copies of its crosses with mixed and matched components so it's tough for an average joe like me to judge. Many times, even the pins that were stamped with the LDO number "4" are postwar pieces. This is a classic example of why I would never buy any S&L Spain-Cross unless it has the L/16 LDO number stamped on it. I'm anxious to hear what the pros will say.

    By the way... I was recently informed that the term "Spanish Cross" is a euphemism for "Fake-ass garbage" so you should consider using the correct terminology... "Spain-Cross."

    Incidentally... your friend's pics are not optimal for properly evaluating this cross.

          Just a postwar (probably '60's) cross.

            I´ll agree that this one is a postwar made copy.
            I rotated some of the pictures.

                  Yes, the hardware indicates that it is postwar S&L.
