Hello

I too feel that this cross isn't right. The frame, the date and a couple of things put me off this item. I've just been searching for an earlier thread with a similar cross on it - and a picture of a known fake as featured on Detlev Niemanns site.

The old thread is at:

Sorry, but it just doesn't look right.
